Why is it important?
This paper provides an overview of JAG and exemplifies how an accreditation service may be successfully implemented to improve quality on a national and international scale. Evidence was presented according to: 1) JAG's impact on patient care, 2) impact on quality of endoscopy services and 3) impact on endoscopy training.
Perspectives
What did study find? This study shows that it is possible to achieve a transformation in quality, safety, patient experience and training with a strategic, centrally led, and modestly resourced accreditation body.
