What is WCAG and why is it important?

WCAG, or the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, is a set of international standards designed to make websites accessible to individuals with disabilities. These guidelines cover a range of accessibility needs, including visual, auditory, cognitive and physical impairments. For healthcare organizations, adhering to WCAG is not only a best practice but a critical step toward ensuring all patients can easily access vital information, schedule appointments and communicate with your team. Starting in May 2026, healthcare websites will be required to meet WCAG AA standards . Addressing accessibility now can help your organization prepare and demonstrate a commitment to inclusivity.

How We Identify and Resolve Accessibility Issues

Our ReadySites for Healthcare team goes beyond simply building accessible websites. We offer ongoing accessibility monitoring and updates to help your website stay aligned with WCAG standards.

Monthly Accessibility Crawls

Each month, we use advanced tools to scan your website for errors that may create challenges for individuals with disabilities. These scans identify issues such as missing alt text, poor color contrast, navigation barriers or inaccessible forms.

Timely Review and Fixes

Once errors are identified, our team reviews the findings and implements updates to resolve the issues. We prioritize changes that have the greatest impact on patient access, ensuring your site continuously improves its usability for all visitors.

Proactive Monitoring

Accessibility needs and technology evolve over time, so we stay ahead by conducting regular updates and addressing new challenges as they arise. This proactive approach helps your website maintain alignment with WCAG standards as they continue to develop.

The Benefits of Striving for WCAG Compliance

Working toward WCAG compliance benefits your patients and strengthens your organization’s reputation.

Improved Patient Access: Accessible websites remove barriers that may prevent individuals with disabilities from accessing care, scheduling appointments or finding important information.
Legal Risk Mitigation: Healthcare websites must meet strict regulatory requirements, including accessibility. Regular monitoring and updates can help reduce the risk of legal action related to accessibility issues.
Enhanced Patient Trust: Demonstrating a commitment to accessibility shows your dedication to serving all patients, reinforcing trust in your organization.
