 Accreditation organization announces milestone eleven years after approval by The
Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services

Annapolis, MD / PR Web / December 2, 2024 – RadSite™, a leading accreditation organization promoting quality-based imaging practices, announced today that it has achieved an important milestone. The agency has now accredited more than 2,000 Advanced Diagnostic Imaging (ADI) systems covering:

·      Computed Tomography (CT)

·      Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

·      Nuclear Medicine (including SPECT, PET, and PET/CT)

·      Dental Cone Beam CT

·      Medical Cone Beam CT.

 

“RadSite offers a high-touch accreditation experience through its online portal,” notes Mark Hiatt, MD, RadSite’s chief medical officer. “I had the privilege of working with RadSite when the new advanced diagnostic imaging accreditation programs were developed in 2012. It is exciting to see RadSite hit this important milestone.”

“RadSite’s accreditation review team for each applicant includes at least one senior administrative reviewer, a radiologist, and a physicist,” notes Mark Casner, RadSite’s chief accreditation officer. “Applicants receive feedback at several points during the accreditation process. The results of each review are summarized, and then the  application is forwarded to the Accreditation Committee on a de-identified basis for the accreditation determination.”

“Most accreditation applicants have to make one or more substantive changes to their workflow or policies to meet RadSite’s rigorous standards,” adds Garry Carneal, RadSite’s president and chief executive officer.“ RadSite regularly updates its standards to make sure it is responsive to emerging clinical pathways, industry changes, payer expectations, and technology trends.”

As RadSite continues to grow, accreditation reviewers work diligently to maintain clarity with applicants throughout the accreditation process. Whether the applicant is a large imaging supplier managing hundreds of locations or an individual practice, the RadSite team will work with the applicant’s staff every step of the way. RadSite is always brainstorming new and innovative ways to automate its approach to help applicants stay organized and to promote quality-based imaging.
