The purpose of this page is to allow all interested persons, groups or organizations an opportunity to submit suggestions concerning additions, deletions or revisions to existing or new expected practices. The Committee on Performance-Based Standards meets on a bi-annual basis, to review the proposed changes to the ACA expected practices. If a proposal is denied by the Committee, that proposal is eligible for submission again in two years.
For questions, please contact Terri Driskill, Senior Accreditation Specialist, at TDriskill@aca.org.
The opportunity for submissions will close on Friday, January 16, 2026. The revisions proposed during this period will be available for public comment from Tuesday, January 20, 2026 through Monday, January 26, 2026.
