NAFC is a national nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the quality of life for people with incontinence, voiding dysfunction and related pelvic floor disorders. Center of Excellence programs recognize hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers and specific medical professionals from their service lines who are committed to achieving defined standards for patient safety and care quality. The COECCW program is focused specifically on facilities that address the needs of those with urinary incontinence, overactive bladder and pelvic organ prolapse.

HOW TO BECOME A CENTER OF EXCELLENCE To attain the COECCW accreditation, a facility and its co-applicant medical professionals must demonstrate a commitment to establishing a culture of excellence, continuous improvement to quality care, patient satisfaction, continuing educational efforts and achieving superior clinical outcomes. Program compliance is confirmed by rigorous and thorough onsite inspections that include medical chart reviews. The process, shown below, begins with completing the COECCW interest form.

Once accredited, SRC and NAFC will announce your newly designated status on both organizations’ websites and in social media.
