Quality Check® now includes organizations not accredited by The Joint Commission
Beginning October 1, The Joint Commission’s Quality Check® website will include organizations that are not accredited by The Joint Commission as well as Joint Commission accredited organizations. Joint Commission accredited organizations are easily identified by The Joint Commission’s Gold Seal of Approval™. This is the first listing of its kind. Several thousand home care, long term care, and ambulatory care organizations will be added using publicly available lists of health care providers. After October 1, organizations not accredited by The Joint Commission can request to be added to Quality Check by accessing www.qualitycheck.org/qcdirectory. The addition of organizations that are not accredited by The Joint Commission provides consumers with more information to help them make decisions about their health care. While Quality Check will display demographic and service information for organizations not accredited by The Joint Commission on the Quality Check Search Results page, Quality Reports will only be available for organizations that are accredited by The Joint Commission.
