Making healthcare healthier
We're working with national healthcare authorities and healthcare providers around the world to effectively manage risk and improve health delivery.
Now, with our historic approval from the US Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to deem Medicare compliance, DNV is ready to help US hospitals achieve their highest goals.
DNV's US accreditation service is called NIAHOSM. It is the first new CMS approved accreditation program in more than 40 years, and is the first ever to integrate hospital accreditation with ISO 9001.
NIAHOSM advantages
NIHAOSM is a collaborative accreditation model that conducts surveys annually. Health facilities switching to NIAHOSM are already seeing improved clinical and financial performance. Fully certified by US Medicare, fully compliant with ISO 9001.
"Our patients are safer now"
When newborn babies leave the premature clinic at the University Hospital Brno in the Czech Republic, the parents receive documentation that the hospital's quality management system complies with the requirements of the ISO 9001 standard.
Committed to safety
The National Health Service Litigation Authority and DNV are working together to improve the safety of NHS patients and staff.
Risky by nature
Why is The National Patient Safety Agency using DNV, a risk management company with roots in shipping and the oil and gas industry, as consultants integrated in NPSA's leadership team? Probably because the NPSA is rather particular in its choice of risk management expertise.
Why partner with DNV?
When partnering with DNV, you begin a journey towards quality and patient safety improvement.

Why we need a new accreditation alternative
