ITRemedy, a trusted provider of IT services in Dallas, Richardson, Plano, and the DFW area, is proud to congratulate The Joint Commission on securing renewed deeming authority from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) for its Ambulatory Surgical Center (ASC) Accreditation Program. Effective from September 1, 2024, through September 1, 2030, this six-year renewal ensures that ASCs can continue to pursue Medicare approval with confidence, knowing that The Joint Commission’s high standards meet or exceed CMS requirements.

This renewal demonstrates The Joint Commission's commitment to healthcare quality and operational safety. With this deeming approval, ASCs now have the option to seek accreditation from The Joint Commission as an alternative to state surveys for Medicare certification, promoting streamlined compliance processes and enhanced operational standards.

Ken Grubbs, DNP, MBA, RN, Executive VP of Accreditation at The Joint Commission, stated: “With renewed deeming approval from CMS, The Joint Commission can continue helping healthcare organizations across the nation provide the safest and highest quality ambulatory care.” This accreditation framework will further assist ASCs in enhancing performance reliability and minimizing operational risks.
