New Resource: Accreditation Policies and Processes

December 14, 2023

A new resource, Accreditation Policies and Processes, has been created for the CoC, NAPBC, and National Accreditation Program for Rectal Cancer (NAPRC) to assist you with understanding the accreditation process and expectations. This new document combines established policies and processes into one document for each program and reflects policies that are consistent across the accreditation programs and those that are unique to a program. The Site Visit Extension or Cancellation Policy as a stand-alone document has been retired because it is included in the Accreditation Policies and Processes. This new document also provides information and links to other resource documents related to the process for ease of accessibility. The Accreditation Policies and Processes is located in the QPort Resources.
