Harvard Pilgrim Health Care, a Point32Health company, named Dartmouth’s Southcoast Physician Network to its 20th-annual Physician Group Honor Roll, it announced this month.

The list of 68 physician groups chosen from around New England were highlighted for achieving “exceptional results in their approach to disease prevention and the treatment of acute and chronic illness for both adult and pediatric patients,” the company said.

Harvard Pilgrim reviewed physician group performance in three domains of clinical care affecting both adult and pediatric patients: acute, chronic and preventive care.

Physician groups were identified as Honor Roll practices based on points earned for performance on 15 measures such as appropriate treatment for children with upper respiratory infection, comprehensive diabetes care, and breast cancer screenings.

“We recognize that the extensive, unfamiliar challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic have put significant strain on our provider network, and on health care professionals everywhere,” said Dr. Claire Levesque, Point32Health’s Chief Medical Officer. “In light of these challenges, attaining the clinical results required to be named to the Honor Roll is an especially meaningful accomplishment — and we applaud these providers for their continued excellent work.”
