The Foundation for the Accreditation of Cellular Therapy (FACT) has initiated a voluntary comprehensive standard-setting, inspection, and accreditation program that encompasses all phases of hematopoietic collection, processing and transplant. FACT is a nonprofit corporation developed by the International Society for Cellular Therapy (ISCT) and the American Society of Blood and Marrow Transplantation (ASBMT) for the purposes of self-assessment and accreditation in the field of hematopoietic cell therapy. FACT has established standards for the provision of quality medical and laboratory practice in hematopoietic cell transplantation; conducts inspections, and accredits programs that will encourage health institutions and facilities performing hematopoietic cell transplantation to voluntarily meet these standards; and recognizes compliance with standards by issuance of Certificates of Accreditation.
