Make the smart, modern choice.

Welcome

ACHC is not just another option — we are THE Accreditation Commission for Health Care. Built on a foundation of CMS-aligned standards, ACHC offers a smart, streamlined, and credible path to accreditation. While others rebrand or remove excess, ACHC stands firm in having never added unnecessary burden in the first place.

We are proud to be the standard-bearer for modern, meaningful accreditation. Our integrity, alignment, and relentless focus on what truly matters — health care organizations and the communities they serve — begins and ends with a commitment to quality, clarity, and consistency. Our message is simple: ACHC is here to help your organization thrive through genuine partnership and support.
