Why is pain education important to healthcare facilities and their administrators?

The Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) implemented its pain management standards for accredited health care organizations on January 1, 2001. Since then, JCAHO surveyors have been visiting institutions to assess compliance with pain management standards.
