About the Clinical Benchmarking Program

A significant part of the American College Health Association’s mission is to enhance its members’ ability to advance the health of all students and the campus community. To meet this mission, ACHA, through its Benchmarking Committee, has developed a series of clinical benchmarking tools in response to many institutions’ desire to have a means to benchmark their clinical quality care standards. The benchmarking measures have been based on input from members, other national and governmental health care organizations, and evidence-based literature.

Goals of the Clinical Benchmarking Program

  • To identify areas and means of performance improvement
  • To understand the quality of care provided by member institutions for college students
  • To find areas of potential education and focus for ACHA initiatives to improve quality of care in college health

For ACHA and the Clinical Benchmarking Program participants to compare quality provided by member organizations against community and national standards.
