AAAHC

AAAHC (Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care) is the country’s largest and most respected accreditation association, whose purpose is the promotion of patient safety, quality of care and measurement of performance.

Accreditation is a voluntary process that measures the quality of an ambulatory health care organization’s services and performance against nationally recognized standards. The process involves a self-assessment and a rigorous on-site review by highly trained and experienced survey professionals. It symbolizes Springfield Clinic’s commitment to high quality health care to its patients.

In the 2012 survey, Springfield Clinic received straight A’s on the survey report and was granted a full, three-year accreditation, the highest level of achievement available from AAAHC, marking more than twenty consecutive years of accreditation for Springfield Clinic.

Congratulations to everyone at Springfield Clinic for helping to achieve this milestone in healthcare excellence!
