Abstract:	In July 2013, The Joint Commission will relaunch the Disease-Specific Care Certification Program with refreshed standards, elements of performance, and scoring. The 2013 Disease-Specific Care Certification Manual features all the updates and provides everything your disease-specific care program needs to attain or retain core or advanced certification. Core Joint Commission certification helps you build a structure to deliver consistent care with better outcomes, while advanced certification incorporates optional clinical requirements developed in collaboration with industry experts. ... Current Core Certification Programs: These are disease-management programs that provide clinical care and services directly to participants in hospitals, long term care settings, home care organizations, health plans, integrated delivery systems, rehabilitation centers, physician groups, and disease-management service companies. Some of the dozens of disease states, conditions, or procedures that can be evaluated under the Disease-Specific Care Certification Program include, but are not limited to, joint replacement, asthma care, cardiac rehab, morbid obesity, and depression.
