HPHC Honor Roll

Tufts Medicine Integrated Network (TMIN)’s Tufts Medical Center Physicians Organization (Tufts MC PO) and Lowell General Physician Hospital Organization (Lowell General PHO) have been named to Harvard Pilgrim Health Care’s 2025 Physician Group Honor Roll. The annual Honor Roll recognizes the exceptional acute, chronic and preventative care delivered to our patients. 

The Tufts Medicine organizations were among 56 physician groups selected based on clinical performance measured against national standards set by HEDIS® (Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set), a tool developed for the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) to assess the clinical performance of doctors and other medical professionals. 

Tufts MC PO is one of 20 practices on the Honor Roll to achieve “With Distinction” status—exceeding NCQA’s national 90th percentile in all domains of clinical care.

“Our physicians continue to achieve exceptional clinical results,” said Dr. Frank Osborn, TMIN Chief Medical Officer. “We are proud to be recognized for our expertise, compassion and drive to care for patients and build heathier and thriving communities.”
