Description

• The National Accreditation Program for Rectal Cancer (NAPRC) was developed to decrease variability and increase a multidisciplinary approach among rectal cancer care.

• There is considerable variability among institutions in compliance with the “Patient Care: Expectations and Protocols” standards, and it is unclear how compliance changes once an institution undergoes the accreditation process.

• Corewell Health William Beaumont University Hospital (formerly Beaumont Hospital, Royal Oak) is a large-volume institution that adopted the NAPRC process into clinical practice starting in August 2019.

• In this study, we evaluate institutional compliance before and after NAPRC accreditation adoption was undertaken.
