GAHAR Hospitals Provisional Accreditation

    Understanding GAHAR and how Acc-Ready helps your facility achieve Provisional Accreditation

    Understanding GAHAR

    The General Authority for Healthcare Accreditation and Regulation (GAHAR) is Egypt's national accreditation body responsible for setting and enforcing healthcare quality standards. Provisional Accreditation is the essential first milestone for any hospital in Egypt — demonstrating compliance with foundational safety, quality, and patient care requirements.

    Why does it matter? Provisional Accreditation is a mandatory regulatory requirement for hospitals operating in Egypt. It requires compliance with the General Safety Requirements (GSR), which include 29 requirements, and the Essential Quality Requirements (EQR), which include 41 requirements. In addition, hospitals are required to align with the Operating Manual, which outlines the necessary policies, procedures, plans, and programs to ensure patient safety, infection prevention, quality performance, and workforce competency.

    Acc-Ready guides hospitals through every step of GAHAR Provisional Accreditation — from initial self-assessment to full readiness.

    Structured GAHAR Assessment Workflow

    Navigate GAHAR requirements — from General Safety Requirements (GSR) to Essential Quality Requirements (EQR), along with the Operating Manual covering patient-centered care, quality performance, information management and workforce management. The framework includes structured assessment approaches, key evaluation questions, and defined evidence requirements.

    • Coverage of GSRs (29 standards), EQRs (41 standards) and alignment with Operating Manual policies, procedures, plans and programs
    • Structured assessment methods: document review, staff interview, and observation
    • Evidence upload with file tracking and compliance notes
    • Real-time GSR and EQR scoring with visual chapter dashboards
