Our team has hands on experience in helping clients achieve successful accreditation and then subsequently maintaining that accreditation through implementation of superior quality control programs.

As part of every MRI service package, we cover the following

• Annual ACR physics testing which fully meets the published ACR standards
• Technologist QC review
• Setup and periodic review of all ACR action limits
• Initial and annual refresher training of technologists in ACR QA procedures.
• Provisions of an ACR –compliant Policies and Procedures/QA manual with training materials, relevant policies and procedures helpful forms and pre-made tabs for archiving appropriate QA records..

The ACR accreditation process is a complicated maze of paper work, phantom studies and clinical data that is a race against the clock once the ACR packet has arrived.

The total submission review process can take anywhere from three to five months. Along with satisfying all the site practice guidelines and QA, the site must also pass all the clinical requirements for each exam and the quantitative phantom study.

The site will not receive its accreditation until it passes all administrative, QA, clinical and phantom portions.

If one or more of these are failing, the site must resubmit that portion with an additional fee.

• ACR accreditation demonstrates commitment to quality patient care.
• Many prominent health insurers recognize the value of accreditation and require accreditation for paying claims related to diagnostic radiology services.
• ACR accreditation programs provide a high level of confidence for patients, referring physicians, and managed care organizations that only the highest quality of care is being provided by accredited facilities.
