10.16.2023 Use of organization-level documentation for Health Equity Accreditation If an entity seeking Health Equity Accreditation is part of a larger organization (e.g., corporate parent) that is not seeking Accreditation, can the entity use documentation at the larger organization level to meet Accreditation requirements?

It is acceptable to use larger organization-level documented processes or policies and procedures to meet applicable requirements (e.g., for HE 1, Element A, factor 1) if the entity seeking Accreditation demonstrates that it follows the same processes. However, the entity seeking Accreditation must provide documentation that pertains specifically to its organization for requirements that require action or implementation of such processes (e.g., for HE 1, Element A, factors 2 and 3).
