Accreditation survey, Air Force Health Services Inspection pending for 377th Medical Group Published Feb. 14, 2013 By Maureen Casey 377th Medical Group KIRTLAND AFB, N.M. -- The 377th Medical Group will undergo a thorough survey Feb. 26-28 to verify the group's compliance with national ambulatory health care and Air Force Medical Service standards. The purpose of the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care survey is to evaluate the Med Group's compliance with national ambulatory health care standards. During the same week, inspectors from the Air Force Inspection Agency will conduct a thorough Health Services Inspection to ensure compliance with Air Force and Department of Defense requirements. To maintain continued accreditation, the medical group must undergo a comprehensive survey once every three years. This survey ensures the medical group delivers high quality care to active-duty military members, military retirees, and their family members. There will be no interruption of clinical services because of the survey. Normal operations will remain in place. Stakeholders of the 377th Medical Group with pertinent and valid information about the provision of health care or compliance with AAAHC standards are invited to speak with surveyors during the week.
