Accreditation applications will be required to adhere to new 2016 standards beginning Jan. 1, 2017

The AASM reminds sleep facilities and independent sleep practices that beginning Jan. 1, 2017, the AASM will only accept accreditation and reaccreditation applications corresponding to the updated 2016 Standards for Accreditation, which were released in June.

Applications corresponding to the 2014 standards must be submitted by Dec. 31, 2016. On Jan. 1, unsubmitted applications opened under the 2014 standards will be converted automatically to the 2016 standards.
