The Accreditation Commission for Health Care (ACHC) is offering workshops in April and May for those interested in obtaining and maintaining ACHC accreditation. 

The ACHC is a private, independent, not-for-profit accrediting organization for in-home healthcare, hospice, pharmacy, sleep labs, behavioral health clinics and durable medical equipment, prosthetics/orthotics and supplies (DMEPOS). 

The Achieving ACHC Accreditation workshops will provide attendees with tips for completing the key steps toward accreditation, including developing a preliminary evidence report and a plan of correction. Attendees will be given a take-home edition of the ACHC Accreditation Guide to Success. The workshop fee is $299 for ACHC customers and $399 for non-ACHC providers. 

The Maintaining Compliance for Accreditation workshops function as refresher courses that offer insight into the most common deficiencies found during the accreditation process and tips for creating policies and procedures to avoid them. 
The workshop fee is $129 for ACHC customers and $179 for non-ACHC providers. 

All workshop fees include a voucher for $250 towards future accreditation fees.
