Joint Commission launches new Dashboard Report for ASCs

Editor's Note

The Joint Commission on October 23 announced that a new Dashboard Report is now available for accredited ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs).

The report provides performance measurement data on select measures and is intended to facilitate conversations on data, performance measures, and quality improvement during the survey process.

Using the most recent external data from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services ASC Quality Reporting website, the Joint Commission chose 10 measures for the dashboard.

The Joint Commission plans to release a Dashboard Report for specialty hospitals in 2020.
