The Egyptian Ministry of Health and Population (MOHP) with the assistance of the USAID-funded Partnerships for Health Reform Project (1995–2001) successfully developed and implemented an accreditation program for their primary health centers. Building on this experience, the MOHP Quality Improvement Directorate drafted a set of standards for hospital accreditation. The standards then were refined with the collaboration of government/public sector hospitals, university hospitals, teaching hospitals, and private hospitals. The USAID-funded Partners for Health Reformplus Project provided technical assistance to this current version of the hospital accreditation program. The standards are specific for Egypt, in that they comply with Egyptian laws, regulations, and culture, but they also meet the basic intent of international standards.
