    Have any of you already had experience with the EQUAM certifications? How were they?

    The EQUAM Foundation offers certifications for outpatient healthcare in Switzerland.

    The following certifications are possible at the level of an organization:
    • Primary care practice
    • Specialist practice
    • Pediatric practice
    • Walk-in practice
    • Radiology institute
    • Organizations for coordinated care
    • Telemedicine providers
    • Primary medical care in retirement and nursing homes

    The following treatment qualities are certifiable at the doctor's personal level:
    • Arterial hypertension
    • Diabetes mellitus
    • Medication safety

    I would be delighted to have an interesting discussion about these or similar certifications.

    You are extremely unlikely to have a response here.

    Thank you very much for your kind reply. I am well aware that this is a very specific market and very specific certifications. Nevertheless, it would be nice to hear what others have experienced with similar issues, especially regarding certification of telemedicine and walk-in services.

    This forum isn't really close to such certifications...
