NABH Directs HCOs to Align Facility Names with Actual Services
The National Accreditation Board for Hospitals & Healthcare Providers (NABH) has directed all healthcare organizations (HCOs) to ensure their facility names accurately reflect the services offered. This move aims to enhance transparency and uphold patient trust.
Names implying specialized or super-specialty services must be backed by verifiable availability of such care. Misleading names are discouraged and may result in adverse action. Additionally, the facility name provided in the application form must match the name on the registration certificate.
HCOs are urged to review and adjust their naming conventions to align with these new guidelines. NABH emphasizes that ethical branding is essential for informed patient decision-making and supports a more transparent, accountable healthcare system in India.
