Welcome to the CIHQ Hospital Accreditation Division
The Center for Improvement in Healthcare Quality (CIHQ) is the nation's newest accreditation provider approved by CMS to deem acute care hospitals as meeting Medicare Conditions of Participation.
Our program strives to ensure that patients receive care in organizations that exceed minimum standards set forth by the federal government.
We are committed to helping hospitals improve the quality of care rendered in their community by providing the tools and support they need in a collegial, respectful, educational, and cost-effective manner.
CIHQ congratulates Carolinas ContinueCare Hospital at Pineville
on achieving accreditation!
"We underwent a reaccreditation survey and a re-designation survey for our Center of Excellence in Long Term Acute Care, as well as a survey to obtain the Center of Excellence designation in Respiratory Services.
Although there was lots of ground to cover, CIHQ made us feel at ease. The environment was one of learning and dialogue, and never presented as punitive or got you moments. The team was professional, knowledgeable and well-versed in regulatory throughput."
