Accreditation to ISO 15189 Plus™ is a prestigious symbol of quality and commitment. Accreditation Canada (AC) Diagnostics is a signatory (ISO 15189) to the Mutual Recognition Arrangement (MRA) of the International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (ILAC) and its regional Asia Pacific Accreditation Cooperation (APAC). ISO 15189 Plus™ certificates granted under this MRA are recognized world-wide and as such, your accreditation should be recognized everywhere.

For those AC Diagnostics facilities who have committed to ISO 15189 Plus™, we offer you the opportunity to add the accredited symbol to your reports, letterhead, email signature and/or website. The addition of your accreditation status will provide confidence to your clients and symbolize your commitment to quality test results and a dedication to continuous improvement.

For clients in economies registered with ILAC, facilities may use the ISO 15189 Plus™-Combined ILAC MRA Mark, and for clients in an economy where the ILAC MRA Mark is not registered, accredited facilities may use AC Diagnostics’ approved accreditation symbol.

If you’re currently using the AC Diagnostics’ approved accreditation symbol or the ISO 15189 Plus™-Combined ILAC MRA Mark, please take a moment to ensure you’re using the most up-to-date AC Diagnostics symbol:

Claims of accreditation status may only be made by the laboratory or diagnostic imaging service which AC Diagnostics has named on the certificate of accreditation. The list of accredited facilities may be found here.

If you’re not currently using the accreditation symbol or mark, we encourage you to request the ISO 15189 Plus™ symbol or the ISO 15189 Plus™ - Combined ILAC MRA Mark (if appropriate) and licensing agreement from AC Diagnostics by contacting accreditation@acdiagnostics.ca.
