In the mid-1960s, the United States Congress decided that accredited hospitals would be deemed to meet the conditions of participation and thus could automatically participate in the newly established Medicare and Medicaid programs. HFAP quickly applied for and was granted deeming status in 1965. By 2012, HFAP accredited about 214 hospitals in the US.〔
