Ambulatory health care organizations seeking AAAHC accreditation undergo an extensive self-assessment and onsite survey by AAAHC expert surveyors—physicians, nurses and administrators, who are actively involved in ambulatory care. The survey is peer-based and educational, presenting best practices to help organizations such as the Barnes Center at the Arch improve care and services. The process covers all aspects of care including, members’ rights, case management, health education and wellness promotion, governance, administration and more.
