About DNV Healthcare Inc.
DNV continues its expansion and focus on healthcare through the formation of DNV Healthcare Inc. and by acquiring TUVHS, the US based organization providing hospital accreditation to the NIAHOSM program. This latest development fully supports DNV’s initiative to gain deeming status from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) in the US and to provide US hospitals with an alternative hospital accreditation option.
DNV Healthcare Inc. combines the strength of the former TUVHS and DNV ‘s risk management expertise as a world leader in management system certification, to create a truly innovative healthcare systems company with expertise in the evaluation, training and application of CMS rules and regulations within a proven quality management system.
DNV Healthcare Inc. utilizes its own proven NIAHOSM hospital accreditation program to provide hospitals seeking accreditation, with a survey process that integrates accreditation to standards that address the Conditions of Participation (COPs) with ISO 9001 certification, the universally accepted international standard for a quality management system. This process assures hospitals in their pursuit to improve overall quality, meet what is expected by Medicare’s Conditions of Participation for hospitals.

Additional features include the capabilities of data aggregation and report generation by position, department or across the organization and/or healthcare system.
