“ASCM Excellence” means improving the quality of medical care—leading to greater access for patients, fewer complications, and better outcomes, thus lowering the cost of care.
The American Society of Medical Cannabis (ASCM) is leading physicians to strive for excellence through our patient-interaction programs. The ASCM Excellence Program is a patient-centric care model. A comprehensive suite of services, resources and tools that help you deliver care through involvement, education, consultation, engagement and economics.
ASCM spearheads leading national initiatives to improve quality in patient care, and expand the appropriate use of medical cannabis. ASCM’s enduring commitment to quality is reflected in the many initiatives it has developed, including:

The new manual of key practices will be released in summer 2021 ASCM Practice Excellence—to guide physicians in leading quality improvement and patient-focused efforts in their institutions, departments, and practices. This collaborative manual from multiple contributing authors draws on principles for achieving practice excellence.
ASCM Inspiring Excellence Initiative
ASCM Inspiring Excellence initiative is designed to raise awareness of these and other innovative programs. By working together with healthcare leaders around the nation and publicly advocating the ASCM Excellence Program, we will continue to significantly impact care improvement and will help lead our healthcare system in the right direction.
