• PR:Notifying The Joint Commission About Organization Changes (PDF)[REF:GB, LDR, 2016] Perspectives September 2016, Vol 36, #9, Pg 12 JCp1609_B2

Effective October 1, 2016 organizations should not wait 30 days after the fact to notify TJC of significant changes, but rather do so “when leadership within the organization has approved moving forward with the proposed change and identified a time frame for
implementing that change.” Significant changes include those related to ownership, location volume of services, adding or discontinuing programs/types of services.
Tip: Make sure Leadership and Governing Body is aware of this change.
