Atlanta, Georgia (December 11, 2018)—DLH Holdings Corporation (NASDAQ: DLHC) announced today it has earned the Gold Seal of Approval^® from The Joint Commission, an independent leading national certification body, for the quality and safety of its clinical healthcare staffing services. This certification results from an independent verification that the people, technology, and processes DLH delivers to the Veterans Affairs (VA) consolidated mail outpatient pharmacy (CMOP) program adhere to industry best practices as defined by The Joint Commission standards body.
