Joint Commission Accreditation
The national evaluation and certifying agency for nearly 15,000 health care organizations
and programs in the United States, The Joint Commission's state-of-the-art
standards focus on patient safety and quality of care. And, they are continually
updated to reflect the rapid advances in health care and medicine.
MinuteClinic was the first retail health care provider to seek out and receive accreditation
from The Joint Commission (formerly JCAHO). Our accreditation signifies that MinuteClinic
complies with more than 180 national standards in the implementation
of established clinical practice guidelines, as well as more than 500 performance
measurements.
We're proud to display the commission's Gold Seal of Approvalâ„¢. It further
demonstrates our dedication to delivering the highest possible quality health care
to patients in communities throughout the country.
