The reason why JCI accreditation is recognized as the world's most stringent medical certification is that it requires a fine, wide, and high standard. JCI (the fifth edition) standard contains 316 indicators and 1262 measuring points. Such a huge amount of inspection usually carried out by "tracing method", namely the implementation of the assessment relies on a variety of tracking strategies & modes. Conducting medical procedures comprehensively on all aspects and the inspection process is almost completely free from the influence of hospitals and patients, for example, during an inspection, the “tracking method” can have the process run without the staff and patients’ knowledge. The hospital’s service quality to patient’s entire track from admission to discharge involving dozens of service sectors can be evaluated without bothering them in the assessment. Under this stringent standard of review, "vanity project", "the last helpful push", "empty talks" and other practices simply does not work.

To protect patient privacy, outpatient area put "closed consultation system” into practice; health care workers are not allowed to enter the ward without knocking; posters like "Please do not discuss the patient's condition," are seen in public places. In addition to the possible risks of surgery, surgical informed consent also includes the benefits of surgery, other available options, and the possible consequences of refusal to surgery, expected therapeutic effect, the possible costs and so on, to make sure patient’s extensive rights to know all the related information on surgical operation. It is this rigorous pursuit of medical care quality makes St. Stamford Modern Cancer Hospital Guangzhou the first Mainland Chinese hospital gain favor of access to international capital.
