Financial and Quality Improvement
Accredited facilities demonstrate a commitment to higher standards, giving them a competitive edge and streamlining diagnosis and treatment processes. Risk stratification ensures proper patient placement, reducing liability for missed MIs and improving Door-to-Balloon times through stronger EMS and Dispatch coordination.
Accreditation also supports operational efficiency by identifying gaps, improving cross-departmental collaboration and refining processes. It lowers length of stay, reduces readmissions and protects against Recovery Audit Contractor (RAC) issues through better documentation and care practices, while reinforcing the facility's dedication to exceptional cardiac care in the community.
Enhancing Medicare Compliance Through Accreditation
ACC Accreditation Services also uniquely ensures consistent Medicare payments through accurate patient status placement. Facilities see enhanced performance on CMS core measures for ACS and heart failure patients, driving better outcomes.
