USOSM Practices Achieve Centers of Excellence Status

---

The Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC) has accredited two additional U.S. Oral Surgery Management (USOSM) partner practices. They are North Sound Oral & Facial Surgery and Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Michael L. Bobo, DDS, MD, FACS.

North Sound Oral & Facial Surgery is located in Anacortes, Washington, and provides a full scope of high-quality oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMS) services to patients in the North Sound region. Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Michael L. Bobo, DDS, MD, FACS is a premier OMS practice with two locations – one in Murray, Kentucky, and one in Union City, Tennessee.

To receive accreditation, organizations must meet the AAAHC’s nationally recognized standards of quality. Since 1979, the AAAHC has accredited more than 6,700 organizations, but only a fraction of those have been OMS practices. A tremendous accomplishment in and of itself, the accreditation also signifies an additional achievement: the USOSM Oral and Maxillofacial Centers of Excellence designation.

As defined by the National Library of Medicine, centers of excellence are specialized programs within health care institutions that supply exceptionally high concentrations of expertise and related resources, such as leadership, best practices, research, and training.

“The USOSM Oral and Maxillofacial Centers of Excellence program is the first of its kind, created to recognize USOSM partner practices who consistently deliver superior patient care and clinical excellence, to encourage those characteristics in others, and to spur additional practice growth,” said USOSM CEO Doug Drew. “We’re extremely proud of North Sound Oral & Facial Surgery and Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Michael L. Bobo, DDS, MD, FACS. This is a tremendous achievement and a reflection of their dedication to exceptional patient care and everything that goes along with maintaining true clinical excellence.”

To qualify, USOSM partner practices must apply to and receive approval from the clinical governance board, meet all eligibility criteria, pass internal inspections, and meet the accreditation requirements from the AAAHC. Eligibility requirement categories include leadership, best practices, support or training for a specific area, and expertise.

Practices that achieve the USOSM Oral and Maxillofacial Centers of Excellence designation are focused on clinical excellence. This encompasses excellent outcomes, as well as patient-centered care, patient safety, performance improvement, interdisciplinary education, maintaining the highest standards in ethics and professionalism, and more.

“It’s extremely important to us that each USOSM partner practice embodies these standards, and this program helps ensure that,” added USOSM Chief Clinical Officer Vincent J. Perciaccante, DDS, FACS. “Meeting the stringent AAAHC requirements is the last step in receiving our Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Centers of Excellence designation. The AAAHC is the recognized leader in ambulatory health care accreditation and our third-party, accrediting partner. The AAAHC provides additional oversight for our program and helps ensure the highest levels of quality control.”
