NEW ASC? WE’RE HERE TO HELP.

Accreditation should be a foundation, not a barrier

ASC Accreditation. Been there. Done that.

(And still energized by every new organization.)

ACHC’s mission is based on excellence in customer service. Combine that with deep experience in helping get new organizations operational and positioned for success, and you’ve got a partner for the life of your organization.

When you work with ACHC for accreditation of your new ambulatory surgery center, you’ll benefit from the knowledge of experts and the educational mindset that supports your goals of providing high-quality patient care while achieving business efficiency for your ASC operations.

ACHC’s ASC Accreditation program has been helping organizations prepare for and achieve CMS-recognized accreditation since 2003.

We are:

Credible.

Payors and patients value independent, third-party review of your organization.

Comprehensive and cost-effective.

ACHC offers added value as a one-stop education and accreditation solution for your ASC and any ancillary services.

Collaborative and dedicated.

Our partnership approach is focused on education, with outstanding customer service from a dedicated Account Advisor and an accessible team of ASC clinical specialists.

You want it when? We’ve got you!

Opening an ASC is a sizeable investment. As you move closer to being able to serve patients on a full schedule, an expedited accreditation process can reduce idle time and minimize delays in reimbursement. You may want to shorten your timeline, and you’ll need an accreditation organization prepared to meet that need. That’s ACHC. And we’ve got TIME.

Time Is Money Earned (TIME) is a program to accelerate the process from application to decision that can save time, money, and frustration. TIME is an option for organizations seeking an Initial Survey with or without CMS deemed status. Talk with your Customer Care Specialist for more information.

That initial call really set up the parameter for what the whole continuum of the experience was going to be. The portal was very helpful, like being able to access that dashboard. It was also user friendly, especially when you can call and get a human on the phone.”
