The JCAHO has introduced yet another revision of its telemedicine standards that take effect on July 1, 2006. According to the JCAHO's Web site (www.jcaho.org), standards MS.4.20 and MS.4.120 will require hospitals that rely on privileging and credentialing information provided by a JCAHO-accredited ambulatory care organization to ensure that the ambulatory facility is in compliance with revised ambulatory care standards HR.4.10 through HR.4.24. Go to the JCAHO's Web site for additional information.
