Boston IVF, a worldwide leader in reproductive healthcare and fertility treatments, announced today it has achieved the prestigious ISO 9001:2015 certification, the world’s most rigorous quality management standard (QMS) for organizations who wish to align superior quality with accountability across all organizational processes.
In 2003, Boston IVF became the first IVF center in North America to achieve ISO certification.
Developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and obtained from global accreditor DQS, Inc., ISO 9001:2015 certification highlights Boston IVF’s steadfast dedication to implementing an in-depth organizational standard for clearly defining internal processes, procedures, quality indicators, and efficiencies.
Organizations like Boston IVF who voluntarily implement ISO 9001:2015 and have successfully completed a thorough audit and evaluation, do so for both internal and external benefits. Internally, the ISO quality management system creates a clear and concise operational process that ensures specific quality objectives are sufficiently met. Externally, both current and future patients find added trust in their care when such high standards have been achieved with consistency and transparency.
“Boston IVF continues to be an industry leader in providing the highest standard of quality and patient care,” said David Stern, MBA – Chief Executive Officer of Boston IVF. “Our ISO 9001:2015 accreditation and quality management system works in tandem with our mission to continuously challenge ourselves, improve, and exceed the expectations of our patients. This important certification and standardization helps us to reach our goal of providing each patient with the same level of outstanding care that they deserve.”
ISO re-certifications follow a three-year cycle and require subsequent yearly audits to verify ongoing implementation, maintenance, and compliance with the specific standard.
“Boston IVF’s ISO 9001:2015 certification ensures our organization has robust, unified, and consistent procedures in place throughout all business areas such as clinical care, risk management, documents and data, training, business continuity processes, and so much more,” said Rochelle Hart, MBA – Director of Quality & Risk Management of Boston IVF. “Most importantly, the guiding principle behind Boston IVF’s ISO certification is to foster a culture of unwavering commitment to first-class patient care and satisfaction.”
