BUILDING BRIDGES
BRIDGES TO EXPERTISE DECODING COMPLEXITY Mastery is a concept near and dear to ACHC. Overwhelmingly, individuals join the ACHC staff directly from work in healthcare settings. The move to accreditation often is the result of a strong desire to share knowledge for a bigger impact on patient care. In 2024, ACHC experts wrote, reviewed, and revised countless standards, spoke at conferences, led education events and Master Classes, were interviewed on podcasts, and authored dozens of blog posts and articles for healthcare publications. Here are some examples.
