Accreditation and certification standards have long reflected best practices for structures and processes that drive quality outcomes. But where does healthcare equity factor in?
In this podcast, two Mayo Clinic leaders talk about how The Joint Commission has implemented new standards that address disparities alongside of its traditional focus on elevating hospital patient safety and quality.
The conversation includes how Mayo Clinic evaluated and aligned the new standards with organizational priorities to reduce healthcare inequity, challenges encountered and the imperative of changing culture to successfully meet the new standards.
