Journey to Centers of Excellence Certification Resource Center
We are excited to work with you! Below you will find key resources to help you on your journey to Joint Commission Advanced Total Hip and Knee Replacement (THKR) Certification.
Joint Commission THKR certification standards help you develop strategies to address the most complex issues and identify key vulnerabilities in the patient care experience. Email Brian Johnson to request the standards.
Organizations seeking initial Joint Commission certification are required to adopt a set of standardized performance measures and collect monthly data for each measure in the set to submit to The Joint Commission.
Joint Commission THKR certification requires participation in the American Joint Replacement Registry (AJRR) for performance measures and quality improvement purposes. Sites must be contracted with AJRR and submit data to the Registry on at least a quarterly basis.
