HaysMed Mammography Department Receives Recertification
Cheers to the HaysMed Mammography Department!
HaysMed is thrilled to announce that the Mammography Department has successfully received MQSA recertification! This yearly inspection rigorously examines our personnel, equipment, and operations to ensure we meet the highest standards set by the FDA.
Why is this important?
MQSA stands for the Mammography Quality Standards Act. This U.S. federal law, sets national quality standards for mammography, including the accreditation, certification, and inspection of facilities that perform mammography. The goal is to ensure that all women have access to quality mammography for the detection of breast cancer in its earliest, most treatable stages. The program is regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Not only do we undergo these thorough annual inspections for MQSA certification, but we are also currently navigating the ACR accreditation process, which occurs every three years. This year, both critical evaluations coincide, doubling our efforts to maintain our commitment to quality and safety.
Achieving this certification is a testament to our team’s hard work and dedication to providing top-notch care. Thank you to all of the Associates who’s efforts earned HaysMed another year of Mammography excellence!
The HaysMed Mammography Department includes Leah Rhoades, Laura McCarter, Brandy Huser, Laura Vonlintel, Andrea Hoffman, and Audra Leiker.
