TheLINE Plastic Surgery announced that it has successfully completed the review for JCI accreditation, an internationally authoritative healthcare evaluation standard. JCI is an affiliate of The Joint Commission, the US healthcare accreditation body, and is an international healthcare evaluation organization established in the US in 1994 to evaluate and accredit hospitals within the United States. It is also the international healthcare accreditation commission recognized by the WHO (World Health Organization), and it objectively measures and documents the level of medical services and drives continuous improvement so that patients can receive the best possible care in a safe environment, issuing certificates to healthcare institutions worldwide only after a demanding review. TheLINE Plastic Surgery underwent its on-site survey against the 5th edition of the JCI standards, which became more stringent this year. The 5th revised edition of the JCI accreditation standards consists of 304 rigorous standards and 1,222 measurable elements. It added sections on medical staff education and human subjects research, and tightened the requirements for patient safety and quality improvement. TheLINE Plastic Surgery completed the review successfully after having its value and qualifications assessed from multiple angles, from a safe medical environment and care system built solely around the patient, through to medical education and clinical research. The clinic said, "We are pleased to have completed the 'JCI' accreditation review, which became more demanding this year, with what is the most internationally credible healthcare evaluation body," adding, "Because this accreditation stays valid only if renewed every three years, we plan to keep developing our patient-centered medical environment and care system so that we can continue to pass the review."
