We Help Outpatient Surgical Centers Achieve Accreditation

QUAD A | AAAHC | Medicare | State Licensure

Get Started

Don’t get overwhelmed with plans and paperwork

We work closely with you to to keep everything in order and ensure that you achieve the accreditation you need for your facility to succeed. 

Problem: Accreditation standards (QUAD A, AAAHC), Medicare Conditions for Coverage (CfCs), and state licensure requirements are not static. They are updated, refined, and sometimes completely changed on an ongoing basis. It’s a full-time job just to track these updates, interpret their nuances, and understand how they impact the facility’s operations. Missing a critical update can lead to non-compliance during a survey.

How ASI Helps: We specialize in staying current with all regulatory and accreditation changes. We interpret complex language into actionable steps for the facility, provide timely alerts, and often offer training on the newest requirements. We are able to act as a dedicated knowledge hub, relieving your staff from this constant research burden.

Problem: As discussed, the sheer volume of policies, procedures, patient records, staff files, quality data, and safety logs is immense. Ensuring everything is accurate, complete, readily accessible, and consistently maintained is a monumental task. Common deficiencies often relate to incomplete or incorrect documentation.

How ASI Helps: We can provide templates for policies and procedures, checklists for required documentation, and guidance on setting up efficient record-keeping systems (both physical and electronic). We can help audit existing documentation to identify gaps and offer strategies for streamlining the process, making it less of a “paperwork” nightmare and more of an organized system.

Problem: Objectively assessing one’s own facility against rigorous standards is difficult. Staff members are often too close to their daily work to spot subtle non-compliance issues. Conducting comprehensive mock surveys requires a deep understanding of what surveyors look for, including common “deficiencies” cited by surveyors.

How ASI Helps: Consultants bring an outside, unbiased perspective. They are experienced surveyors themselves and can conduct realistic mock surveys, identify hidden deficiencies, and provide targeted feedback and recommendations for improvement. This “dress rehearsal” significantly increases the facility’s readiness and confidence for the actual survey.

Problem: Even with excellent policies, if staff aren’t aware of them, trained on them, and consistently adhering to them, compliance will suffer. Engaging all staff members in the accreditation journey and ensuring ongoing education can be challenging, especially with staff turnover and busy schedules.

How ASI Helps: We can provide targeted training programs for staff at all levels on accreditation standards and best practices. We can help develop tools and resources that make compliance easier for staff to understand and implement in their daily routines, fostering a culture of continuous readiness and patient safety throughout the facility. ASI provides a comprehensive package of tools to assist your staff in ongoing maintenance of all compliance for accreditation.
