MEDIKO has created a program that is designed to adhere to NCCHC, ACA and state standards. We also take our time to listen and learn about all operational details and requirements of each unique facility. We provide you with a policy and procedure manual for the medical department while making sure that there will be no conflicts with your existing facility operational manual.
MEDIKO recognizes and appreciates the dedication and efforts of our on-site medical staff and make a promise to you that you will receive the same individualized, high-quality care and attention from any member of the MEDIKO team. Experience the MEDIKO difference.
