Name the agency here. For example, “The Joint Commission” |
Here, you want to research and explain the impact that the chosen agency (i.e. Joint Commission) has on compliance of regulatory standards. For example, the Joint Commission surveys hospitals to ensure compliance and adherence with the standards set by the Joint Commission. The Joint Commission Standards are set based on the Conditions of Participation. If Joint Commission survey is not passed, then accreditation will not occur. Please be sure to research and provide a citation so your information is fact based. In addition, please be sure to meet the minimum word count of 90 words (Zubich, 2022). |
Here, you want to research to explain the impact of the agency selected on the standards of care. How does the agency influence the standards that are created? For the Joint Commission, for example, they influence the standards of care through the surveys conducted based on the Conditions of Participation. They set the standards as an objective evaluation process that can help health care organizations measure, assess, and improve performance. Please research this information and expand the detail. Please include a citation, and please be sure to meet the minimum word count requirement of 90 words (Joint Commission Standards, n.d.). |
Here, you want to research and explain the impact that your agency has on potential liabilities. You want to explain what liabilities the healthcare organization has if the agency finds deficiencies with the healthcare organization. For example, if CMS finds deficiencies with the healthcare organization, what are the potential fines/penalties issued? Or if your agency is OSHA, what are the potential fines/penalties issued which impact liability if the healthcare organization is found to be deficient? Please research and include a citation, and also be sure to meet the minimum word count of 90 words (Zubich, 2022). |
