DNV GL accreditation gains ground

HCPro's annual MSP Salary Survey asks respondents to name the entities that accredit their organization. Since 2012, the percentage of respondents who have selected DNV GL has doubled, from 4% of respondents to 8% in 2015. DNV GL entered the accreditation fray in 2008, when it was granted deeming status by CMS. Currently, it accredits nearly 500 healthcare organizations in the U.S., and that number is growing.

The percentage of respondents who cite The Joint Commission as an accreditor has also risen during that time, and that accreditor holds a wide lead among survey respondents. (The survey permits respondents to give multiple answers to this question.) Therefore, the jump in DNV GL responses is probably not solely a result of respondents switching over from the nation's largest accreditor.
