abstract: Certification procedures help to improve the quality process by modifying organizational and clinical attitudes to the benefits of increased quality in the standards of care. It provides a critical attitude towards daily work and requests to dedicate sufficient time to multidisciplinary analysis on breast centre organization activity and performance. Breast Centres Certification (BCCERT) is a nonprofit association, operating in compliance with international standards on certification, which carries out voluntary certification of breast centres based on the requirements of the European Society of Breast Cancer Specialists (EUSOMA) and aims to improve and standardize the Level of patient care throughout Europe.
