Self-Survey and Resurvey Invoice Processes

Your invoice represents your facility's annual fee during self-survey years or the survey fee and annual fee for resurvey years. Your clinic is due for either an onsite survey or a self-survey within six months of receiving the invoice. In addition to payment, please complete the required credentialing documentation listed on our website under Documents.

AAAASF will not schedule your survey until your facility has submitted all credentialing paperwork. An expedited survey fee will apply for your facility if required documents submitted are within 30 days of your expiration date.

Failure to complete the self-survey process before your expiration date may jeopardize the facility's accreditation.

If required paperwork and payment are not received, your accreditation specialist will contact you. If not received 90 days from your expiration date, your facility will be placed on probation and given 60 days to comply before the revocation of accreditation. Invoices not paid within 30 days of the invoice billed date are subject to a 2% monthly finance charge on the total amount invoiced. An additional 2% monthly finance charge will be added if payment is not received within 60 days of the invoice billed date.

Global Accreditation Status

Attract more international patients by adding the Global Accreditation designation to your facility. Globally accredited facilities receive recognition on the AAAASF website allowing prospective patients worldwide to contact your facility. Additionally, some specialty societies promote AAAASF Globally Accredited Facilities.

If your facility is in good standing and you would like to upgrade to the Global Accreditation status, add the initial fee of $275 to the amount due on your invoice. Future invoices will include a Global Accreditation annual renewal fee of $55. Facilities can cancel the Global Accreditation status; this will not affect your current AAAASF accreditation.

Discount Information

A discount on a facility's annual accreditation fee is available to NARHC and NARA members. Proof of membership or provider status must be provided to AAAASF with your payment to receive the discount.

The discount percentage below may be deducted from your facility's annual fee when paying, if not already applied. Facilities that do not send proof of membership will be responsible for the difference, placed on an accounting hold, and no process will be allowed until full payment is received.
