The 21st Medical Group will be given a compliance inspection by The Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care, Inc. from March 17 to 19.

Part of the accreditation survey is an on-site analysis which includes a comprehensive assessment of the organization's compliance with Accreditation Association standards, including any separate entities that have a close relationship with the organization seeking accreditation.

"To comply with this inspection, we are required to post public notice of the accreditation survey to all beneficiaries," said Kathy Wilson, 21st MDG quality services chief.

According to the AAAHC Web site, the general public, patients, and individuals on the 21st MDG staff, who have pertinent and valid information about this organization's provision of health care or compliance with AAAHC standards, may request an information presentation with AAAHC surveyors at the time of the survey or may write or telephone the AAAHC at 847-853-6060.
