title3.1: What happened to Is there still a separate Quality Check website?

The Joint Commission upgraded the technology supporting Quality Check®, our prior search tool for accredited organizations and certified programs. 

Publicly available information on the organizations accredited or the programs certified by The Joint Commission will now appear on The Joint Commission’s website, where we will be able to deploy quicker updates.

The new “Find Accredited Organizations” tool became available on April 30, 2024 via: https://www.jointcommission.org/who-we-are/who-we-work-with/find-accredited-organizations and includes:

  • Name of organization

  • Accredited, certified and/or verified programs (as applicable)

  • Sites of care

  • Last survey or review date

Data on quality performance measures is available via the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Care Compare tool.

Joint Commission accredited organizations will continue to receive Accelerate PI™ Dashboard Performance Reports via their secure Joint Commission Connect® extranet site.

title3.9: Is it possible to get more current data on Accelerated PI dashboard?

The Joint Commission understands the importance of providing timely data to organizations. The HAP-Other reports contain measures selected from the CMS Compare dataset. For this reason, the data in the Accelerate PI dashboards can only be as recent as the data posted on CMS Compare. They are updated at least biannually with the most recent data available from CMS Compare. The HAP-ORYX reports contain ORYX measure data. These reports are updated quarterly with the most recent data submitted to The Joint Commission.

Beginning in 2024, Acute Care Hospitals will be required to participate in The Joint Commission NHSN Group. This will allow for more timely comparative feedback to organizations. For additional information, refer to section 12. NHSN Group for The Joint Commission.

Note: due to the delayed reporting of CY2021, CY2022, and CY2023 data, reports will be delayed as well.
