MISH Hospital is proud to hold accreditation from the Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program (MBSAQIP), a joint program of the American College of Surgeons (ACS) and the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS).
What Is MBSAQIP?
MBSAQIP accreditation recognizes surgical centers that meet the highest standards for patient safety, surgical quality, and multidisciplinary care in bariatric and metabolic surgery. Accredited centers must demonstrate a commitment to continuous quality improvement, maintain dedicated bariatric surgical teams, and participate in a national outcomes database that tracks patient results and complication rates.
What This Means for Patients
Choosing an MBSAQIP-accredited center means your surgery will be performed at a facility that has undergone rigorous evaluation and meets nationally recognized benchmarks for safety and outcomes. Accredited centers have been shown to have lower complication rates, shorter hospital stays, and better long-term weight loss results compared to non-accredited facilities. Patients can be confident that they are receiving care from a team with specialized training, experience, and a proven track record of excellence.
At MISH Hospital in Lenexa, Kansas, our MBSAQIP accreditation reflects our unwavering commitment to providing the safest and most effective bariatric care possible. To learn more, contact us at (913) 322-7408.
