The mission of the Association of Health Facility Survey agencies (AHFSA) is to strengthen the role of its member state agencies in advocating, establishing, overseeing, and coordinating health care quality standards that will assure the highest practicable quality of health care for all state and federally regulated health care providers.  These goals are met through member advocacy to various organizations and agencies; through the gathering, communicating and exchanging of health related information; through advice and recommendation to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), Association of State and Territorial Health Officials, Inc. (ASTHO) and other health care agencies, associations and entities; through helping to improve the quality of state and territorial health facility survey programs; and, through the professional development of its members.
