Amman, Jordan – November 16th, 2023 Unilabs Jordan has been awarded the silver plaque in the Medical Support Services category in the Health Care Accreditation Council’s 3rd Edition of the Quality Competition.
After Jordan’s medical sector faced major repercussions from the COVID pandemic, the Health Care Accreditation Council (HCAC) organized the Quality Competition with the strategic objectives of supporting efforts in patient safety, improving medical service quality, and encouraging innovative ideas across the Kingdom’s medical sector.
By involving patients and elevating accredited medical institutions’ voices as decision-makers in the healthcare industry, the HCAC Quality Competition has taken place for the 3rd time. Through this competition, the council evaluates the quality of health care services and patient safety guidelines through a 3-stage judging process. A jury of healthcare experts examines every accredited institution based on pre-set judging criteria. Once applications have been submitted, filtered, and matched with the criteria, an initial judging process is conducted; in which the jury blindly evaluates every application. Applicants are judged on medical innovation, solution effectiveness, potential sustainability, team capabilities, and other aspects. The top 30% of applicants are then selected and moved forward to the third stage where applicants present their projects to the jury and are evaluated on the completeness of project elements, clarity and strength of the project, the team’s knowledge and collaboration, responsiveness to the jury’s answers, and the sustainability of plans and projects.
After the judging process is completed, the jury selects the winners among the finalists. Every category of the Quality Competition contains a 1st place, 2nd place, and 3rd place in which the winners are awarded based on their final results.
As a result of the continuous excellence in the performance and execution of medical services, Unilabs has successfully passed through the judging processes of the Quality Competition and was awarded the silver plaque in the Medical Support Services category by the council, marking a significant milestone in the medical lab’s history of achievements.
Since 2011, Unilabs has been offering patients laboratory-testing services and patient-focused expert consultations; making it one of Jordan’s accredited, trusted, and award-winning medical institutions.
