Hospital Accreditation and Certification Options

The Joint Commission has accredited hospitals for nearly 70 years and today accredits nearly 4,000 community, academic, pediatric, long term acute, psychiatric, rehabilitation and specialty hospitals.

Hospital accreditation is validation of your commitment to patient safety and quality. It also allows you to receive Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements for treating those patient populations.

Early Survey Option
The Early Survey Option is reserved for organizations that do not actively care for patients yet, but must provide evidence to payers or regulators of their intent to obtain full accreditation.

Tailored Survey Option
For organizations seeking accreditation across multiple disciplines (i.e., ambulatory care, behavioral health and laboratory settings), The Joint Commission offers a tailored survey option to help coordinate and streamline the application and survey process.

If you’re not sure which option best suits your needs, or you’d like help getting started, our team of experts can help.
