DWQA Questions › Tag: The Joint CommissionFilter:AllOpenResolvedClosedUnansweredSort byViewsAnswersVotesSince a 1971 decision by The Joint Commission, which accredits healthcare facilities, hospitals haven’t had to conduct autopsies to remain in good standing. The commission had mandated autopsy rates of 20% for community hospitals and 25% for teaching facilities but dropped the requirement.
