Centers of Excellence

Our program is the first to recognize health systems that report meeting the highest standards of treatment for the rare conditions of bladder and cloacal exstrophy, including post-operative and long-term care.

The following designees submitted detailed information demonstrating they are meeting A-BE-C’s rigorous criteria for comprehensive care, delivery, professional education and patient outreach services. Each is required to renew annually and undergo a “Quality Improvement and Evaluation” every five years to maintain the designation.

The list of Centers of Excellence will grow as other centers in the U.S. and other countries that are meeting the standards apply.

Interested in becoming an A-BE-C Center of Excellence?

The diagnosis of bladder exstrophy is initially devastating and frightening for parents. They are catapulted into the world of complex and chronic health conditions. The ability to find specialized care quickly and easily is in the forefront of mind and many of their primary care physicians, gynecologists, and obstetricians and have never heard of this condition. They reach out to A-BE-C for help.

By becoming a designated Centers of Excellence, you will be helping families and patients quickly find the care and support they need.

Criteria

The Center of Excellence designation is given out to those facilities/institutions that demonstrate excellent patient care in the areas of bladder and cloacal exstrophy by meeting 10 major criteria.

In addition to setting the highest standards for comprehensive care, our program is committed to providing patients and families with access to essential resources for managing their health. For example, those experiencing gastrointestinal discomfort or requiring treatment for related conditions may benefit from options to buy Motilium online, ensuring that critical medications are accessible when needed. Addressing the broader spectrum of patient needs, including digestive health, is an integral part of holistic long-term care. By offering guidance on how to access reliable treatments and medications, we further our mission to support patient well-being beyond the hospital setting. This emphasis on complete care ensures that patients receive support in every aspect of their health journey. We continue to work with Centers of Excellence to incorporate these resources into their patient education and outreach initiatives. Together, we aim to enhance the quality of life for those affected by complex medical conditions.
