WHAT IS A QUAD A FACILITY?

A QUAD A Facility is a healthcare center accredited by QUAD A, formerly the American Association for Accreditation of Ambulatory Surgery Facilities (AAAASF). QUAD A is a non-profit organization founded in 1980 to improve patient safety and standardize the quality of care in outpatient surgical settings.

Accreditation by QUAD A involves meeting rigorous standards in various aspects of healthcare delivery, including safety protocols, staff qualifications, and operational excellence. Facilities must also undergo thorough onsite evaluations by licensed professionals, maintain continuous compliance, and demonstrate an unwavering commitment to patient well-being. For patients, choosing a QUAD A Facility like Pain Management of Long Island means trusting a practice that has been verified for its dedication to excellence, safety, and transparency. This accreditation reflects the highest level of care you can expect in an office setting.
