Our caregivers take your comfort, safety, and healing as their highest priority throughout your stay with us. During recent years, we are proud to have been recognized several times as one of America’s top 100 hospitals, by an independent study that evaluates cost efficiency and quality care. We’ve also received awards from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid, Vizient, and the Utah Safety Council, among others.

Intermountain Cancer Center – American Fork Hospital successfully attained accreditation from the American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) APEx - Accreditation Program for Excellence®. APEx provides external validation that a radiation oncology facility is delivering high-quality patient care. APEx is a voluntary, objective, and rigorous multi-step process during which a radiation oncology practice is evaluated using consensus-based standards. As part of that evaluation, we demonstrated our safety and quality processes and showed that we adhere to patient-centered care by promoting effective communication, coordinated treatments and strong patient engagement.
