CMS approves another hospital accrediting organization
Quality Improvement Monitor, October 3, 2008
CMS last week announced the approval of DNV Healthcare, Inc. as a deeming authority for U.S. hospitals. DNV is the first new organization to receive deeming authority for hospitals in more than 30 years.
According to the pre-Federal Register announcement, DNV was recognized "as a national accreditation program for hospitals seeking to participate in the Medicare or Medicaid programs" effective September 26, 2008 through September 26, 2012.
"We're coming into this business not just as another option," says Yehuda Dror, president of DNV Healthcare. "We want to take a leadership position."
