OUR SERVICES – MQSA SOLUTIONS
With likely new FDA regulations the risk of accreditation failure is not merely costly but may cause long term economic hardship or result in closure of a mammography service or facility. Preventive measures with an effsective QI program are so much more important than ever before.
Our QI programs can review all aspects of MQSA requirements and bring those which are below par up to meet standards. For an organization with one mammography site or many, our cost-effective programs are designed to bring any facility to MQSA standards expeditiously. At the conclusion, procedural recommendations are made so that each site can maintain its quality going forward.
- Prevention Program: Review current activity using MQSA standards. Work in needed areas to be prepared for any inspection whether random or scheduled. We will be certain that the day-to-day work meets MQSA expectations. On-site, hands-on positioning training for mammography technologists. Each technologist will receive 6 CE A credits (ASRT).
- Remedial Program: Your facility is about to submit images for your three-year accreditation certificate or has failed the first and/or second image submissions. Prior to submitting for third time (failure may mean closure for a year), our QI program team will work with your technologists on-site, hands-on positioning supervision to ensure the images meet MQSA standards to avoid possible closure. Each technologist will receive 6 CE A credits (ASRT).
- New or Reopening Program: Whether you are a new facility or are opening after closure, we can be with you that first day to ensure that your facility is capable of meeting MQSA standards consistently. On-site, hands-on, supervised, positioning training for technologists ensures that you are meeting MQSA standards from the start. Each technologist will receive 6 CE A credits (ASRT).
Patients appreciate a facility which has a QI program to keep quality at its best. It is an excellent marketing tool. It says “You Care”. Word-of-mouth praise costs nothing, creates an excellent reputation and increases demand for your services.
IMPORTANT: Follow up - With all of our programs we leave you with a plan to maintain necessary standards and suggestions for areas which may need special attention. We are always available for follow up if needed.
REMEMBER: With any of our services, a technologist will receive up to 6 CE A credits (ASRT).
