THE ORGANIZATION
The Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC) is the leading accreditor of ambulatory health care organizations and currently accredits almost 5,000 organizations. Accreditation is a voluntary process through which an ambulatory health care organization can measure the quality of its services and performance against nationally recognized standards. Core standards that are required of all accredited organizations include rights of patients, governance, administration, quality of care provided, quality management and improvement, clinical records and health information and facilities and environment.
Healthcare Consultants International (HCI) is a for-profit subsidiary of the Accreditation Association. HCI provides broad-based medical and surgical consulting services. Its primary focus is helping ambulatory health care organizations prepare for accreditation, licensure and certification. HCI provides the following services:
• Accreditation preparation
• Medicare certification preparation
• Regulatory and legislative compliance (OSHA, HIPAA)
• Administrative, anesthesia and clinical policies and procedures
• Continuous quality management and improvement functions
• Physician and staff credentialing process
HCI provides economical and efficient consulting expertise to organizations seeking or renewing accreditation by one of the major accreditation organizations. HCI helps organizations realize their commitment to patient care and safety by providing sound guidance through the many steps required toward achieving and maintaining accreditation. HCI consultants are active or former accreditation surveyors with years of practical ambulatory health care experience. They provide valuable insight of interpretive guidance in helping organizations understand accreditation standards and the complex process of accreditation. HCI consulting services are entirely separate and independent from accreditation services of AAAHC. Accreditation decisions made by AAAHC are made without regard as to whether consulting services have been provided by HCI or any other organization.
