Accreditation provides an ‘official stamp of approval’ for the provision of high quality CT imaging.

The AOA will host a webinar in response to the condition for reimbursement policy of United Healthcare to require accreditation by every freestanding facility and physician office that performs outpatient imaging services.  The webinar will cover the third party accreditation requirements for specialty CT by the Intersocietal Commission for the Accreditation for Computed Tomography Laboratories (ICACTL).  The featured speaker will be AOA member, Jolene Eicher.  Jolene has successfully completed the accreditation process and has been granted accreditation in the areas of Sinus and Temporal bone by ICACTL.

Immediate next steps to get accredited, the ICACTL application, and required specialty CT policies will be outlined in this presentation.
