AAAHC has held Medicare Deemed Status Accreditation since 1996, with the renewal representing the association’s commitment to regulatory compliance in ambulatory care, according to a Dec. 16 press release sent to Becker’s.
AAAHC had to demonstrate a continuing ability to meet CMS’ rigorous requirements for accreditation organizations, including upholding federal standards for patient safety and quality care.
The AAAHC Medicare Deemed Status Accreditation program is supported by a team of surveyors with ambulatory care experience who provide a peer-driven review process tailored to the unique needs of ASCs.
The AAAHC, founded in 1979, accredits more than 6,700 organizations in the outpatient setting.
At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
