What makes an interpreter "qualified" under Section 1557?
Section 1557 of the Affordable Care Act requires covered healthcare providers to use qualified interpreters for patients with limited English proficiency: interpreters who demonstrate proficiency in both languages, interpret ethically and accurately, and know specialized medical terminology. Ad hoc interpreting by family members or untrained bilingual staff generally does not meet the standard. AMS supplies CCHI and NBCMI credentialed interpreters matched to the clinical context.
