Urgent Care Accreditation
UCAOA offered accreditation for urgent care centers for several years, accrediting 32 urgent care centers, but announced in July 2008 that it will cease its own program and collaborate with the Joint Commission to improve and further develop their existing Ambulatory accreditation program, including an applicability grid for urgent care centers. Centers may become accredited now, but the additional specificity provided by the applicability grids will not be available until 2009 (electronic version) and 2010 (printed version).
