REQUIREMENTS FOR ENROLMENT

In order to become an IASIOS enrolled centre, and receive the first seal of recognition, your facility must meet the following criteria:

  • Have approval for enrolment from an appropriate authority (Head of Department or Hospital Director, etc.)
  • Have allocation of funds; keep in consideration that the IASIOS fees will be issued upon enrolment
  • Agree to the terms and conditions
  • Being familiar with the Standards of QA in IO, and a commitment to work on meeting all of the core criteria for accreditation set in the standards

IASIOS does not put restrictions on medical facilities regarding their size or location. Any facility that wishes to obtain formal recognition of their IO service line is able to apply for IASIOS, either as part of an existing institution or as an independent entity

If you are ready to enroll, register your facility here.
