SCAI-Endorsed Cardiovascular Program Accreditation from The Service Line Experts
Corazon’s unique value comes from a consultative and collaborative approach that supports clients’ efforts toward achieving market leadership and a competitive advantage.
Corazon Accreditation offers two varying levels to best serve your cardiovascular programs’ needs for quality assurance, state requirements, or performance improvement efforts.
Corazon’s Service Line of Excellence is a prestigious honor given to cardiovascular programs that earn 3 cardiovascular accreditations. Through Corazon’s accreditation approach, your program performance will reach new heights of clinical, financial, and operational quality.
Corazon’s unique value comes from a collaborative and educational approach for achieving excellence. This includes onsite surveyor participation at Cardiovascular Quality Meetings, ensuring ongoing quality dashboard review with a minimum of quarterly feedback. Our approach also involves best-practice evaluation through ad hoc tracer activities and providing best-practice industry recommendations to support your cardiovascular programs’ needs for quality assurance, state requirements, and performance improvement efforts.
Peer Review
If elected, Corazon’s formal peer review involves a practicing physician in the specialty being reviewed. Clients also have the option for an onsite meeting with a Corazon Physician Advisor and Corazon Surveyor. The peer review process can be selected ad hoc, and a Summary of Findings is included to support your cardiovascular programs’ needs for quality assurance, state requirements, and performance improvement efforts.
