Hospitals Accreditation Programme (HCO) 2
The Hospital Accreditation Programme is NABH’s flagship offering for large hospitals (typically with more than 50 beds) aiming to adopt comprehensive quality and safety systems across their clinical and administrative functions. This programme evaluates all critical areas—from patient care protocols and infection control to infrastructure, documentation, and governance. Accreditation under HCO serves as a mark of excellence, improving patient outcomes, enabling empanelment, and offering a competitive edge in both domestic and international healthcare markets, including medical tourism. It also aligns institutions with global benchmarks through ISQua-recognised standards.
