Division Introduction

The International Affairs Division works to ensure that the Outstanding Laboratory Certification assessment of the Laboratory Medicine Foundation conforms to international-level standards and contributes to providing world-class test reliability.

Internationalization of the Foundation's Certification Program

The Foundation obtained ISQua EEA accreditation from the International Society for Quality in Health Care (ISQua), one of the most authoritative accreditation bodies in healthcare, and has maintained it since becoming the first organization in Korea to obtain it in 2017.
As of 2024, the Laboratory Medicine Foundation and the Korea Institute for Healthcare Accreditation (KOIHA) are the two organizations in Korea that have obtained ISQua EEA accreditation.

Along with the certification assessment standards, the Foundation also obtained ISQua EEA accreditation for its Surveyor Training Program for the first time, and continues to work so that it can develop together with members participating in certification assessment.
