Core v. 3.0 -- Scoring

One of the new features of the scoring methodology in v. 3.0 is that Core will always be 30% of of the total points available for accreditation, regardless of the accreditation program.  This is a change from previous versions, when the percentage of total points allotted to Core depended upon the program.  For example, previously, Core was a smaller factor for Health Plans than it was for a single module program, such as Utilization Management or Independent Review Organization.
