This article examines how radiologists can meet the objectives of patient- and family-centered care set forth by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) program for primary care providers. The breadth of initiatives in radiology that can be mapped to the NCQA objectives is impressive and invites the idea of creating a similar program in radiology. © RSNA, 2018.
