摘要：

Unlike the USA, Canada and Australia, the UK National Health Service has no single dominant accreditation system. The Department of Health commissioned Keele University to study the organization and processes of accreditation and the potential impact of the introduction of a national accreditation system into the NHS. The paper discusses the policy issues involved in considering the value of accreditation systems and alternative approaches to evaluating them.
