Our Cornerstones of Quality
- Quality Patient Care—We are the only accredited and certified outpatient endoscopy center in Snohomish County. We are also recognized by the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE) Endoscopy Unit Recognition Program for promoting quality endoscopy. We have excellent outpatient endoscopy quality based upon long-term data that is continuously collected and compared to national guidelines.
- Patient Satisfaction—All patients at our endoscopy center are asked about their experience, and rate us very highly.
- Patient Safety—Our endoscopy procedural safety data exceeds national guidelines.

Accreditation vs Certification
Certification is a requirement by the State of Washington Department of Health (DOH) for all outpatient procedure units. Typically referred to as Medicare Certification, it is awarded by CMS (Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services).
We have, in addition, chosen to maintain accreditation as an additional level of quality. We are accredited by one of the two main accreditation organizations— Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Healthcare (AAAHC)—for which we are routinely surveyed every three years.
Western Washington Medical Group is the only center doing outpatient endoscopy in Snohomish County (and one of the few in the state) that is both accredited and certified. We are also recognized by the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy’s (ASGE) Endoscopy Unit Recognition Program for promoting quality endoscopy.
