If your practice offers diagnostic imaging services and you want to stay competitive, compliant with the highest standards for patient care, and remain eligible for Medicare benefits, then it’s essential to gain and retain your DIAS certification. Accreditation partners are an invaluable part of this process, helping to lighten this administrative burden, format data for submission, and manage the ongoing compliance process.
The Value of DIAS Certification
DIAS accreditation is not a legal requirement for practices in general, but it is a valuable accreditation to maintain. This is because it is a legal requirement for access to Medicare rebates, as well as helping to create high quality, standardised experience for professionals and patients at diagnostic imaging practices. DIAS certification is highly recommended for all practices offering diagnostic imaging services, including dental, obstetric, urology, gynaecology, breast health, fertility, cardiology and general practice clinics.
Information Required for DIAS Certification
While practices can apply for accreditation on their behalf, the process can be very time-consuming and complex because it involves every area of your practice, from technology and equipment to patient care, patient communication, safety policies, and more.
