What Is Ambulatory Health Care Accreditation?
Accreditation for Hospitals, Ambulatory Surgical Centers, Office Based Surgery Centers, or Home Health Agencies is a third-party peer review process that allows your organization to demonstrate its ability to deliver high-quality patient care and safety, by meeting over 1200 standards.
