The Joint Commission will resume certain intracycle calls
Editor's Note
The Joint Commission announced on October 26 that it will resume intracycle calls for Disease-Specific Care (DSC) and Health Care Staffing Services (HCSS) certification programs, starting January 1, 2023.
These calls, which were suspended in 2021 because of COVID-19, require programs to update their intracycle tabs in the Certification Measure Information Process tool and participate in a call with a Joint Commission reviewer.
DSC- and HCSS-certified programs that were reviewed after January 1, 2022, should expect and are required to participate in a call in 2023, The Joint Commission says.
