Intersocietal Accreditation Commission launches new QI tool
The Intersocietal Accreditation Commission (IAC) announced this week the launch of its IAC Self-Assessment Tool, which helps facilities meet quality measures required by the IAC’s various diagnostic imaging accreditation programs.
This new quality improvement (QI) tool, which is a feature of IAC’s Online Accreditation, allows facilities to benchmark their findings internally and also compare them with other providers throughout the imaging industry.
“Designed to engage facilities by providing an easy-to-use mechanism to perform and document ongoing quality improvement efforts, our goal with the new IAC QI Self-Assessment Tool is to encourage facilities to think critically about their work quality and to continuously identify opportunities for improvement,” Craig Fleishman, MD, IAC Echocardiography Board member and IAC QI Committee member, said in a prepared statement.
“IAC is proud to make this tool available to the diagnostic imaging community, as part of our ongoing mission of improving health care through accreditation,” Mary Lally, MS, IAC CEO, said in the same statement.
More information on the IAC QI tool can be found on the company’s website.
