Overview
ADHICS, the Abu Dhabi Healthcare Information and Cyber Security Standard, is mandated by the Department of Health across licensed healthcare entities, and that mandate has created demand for competent third-party assessment few audit bodies are documented to meet. This is a specialised certification-scheme package for bodies auditing and certifying ADHICS compliance under ISO/IEC 17021-1:2015. Its scheme document maps the control domains of the standard, so an audit is structured around health-information governance and cyber-security controls as ADHICS defines them, not a general information-security checklist borrowed from another scheme.
A Quality Manual establishes the management system and impartiality safeguards of the assessing body. Procedures then govern the cycle: application and review, audit programme management and planning, Stage 1 and Stage 2 conduct, the certification decision and certificate issue, surveillance, recertification and special audits, suspension, restoration and scope change, appeals, complaints, personnel competence and internal audit. An ADHICS control-based audit checklist, an internal checklist against ISO/IEC 17021-1, auditor guidance and a competence development programme complete the kit, which pairs with our ADHICS implementation documentation — one package for the healthcare provider, this one for the body that assesses it.
What this system covers
- ADHICS control domains — structuring the certification audit around the control set of the standard
- Audit-time determination for licensed healthcare entities of differing size and complexity
- Stage 1 and Stage 2 conduct, audit reporting, nonconformity and corrective action requests
- Certification decision, certificate issue, surveillance, recertification and special audits
- Auditor competence in health-information security — qualification, authorisation and monitoring
- Impartiality, confidentiality and conflict of interest across the personnel of the assessing body
- Certified client directory, auditor register and records retention
Who it's for
Audit and certification bodies assessing ADHICS compliance for Abu Dhabi healthcare providers, whether already established in the emirate or entering it. The trigger is the Department of Health mandate reaching their client base faster than their own documentation. The outcome is a scheme written down, a competence route defined for health-information security auditors, and an audit trail from application to certificate that a client or an accreditation assessor can follow.
