Facility Guidelines Institute

The keystone to health care planning, design, and construction

The comment period for the 2026 FGI code is now open.

During the proposal period in 2023, the public was invited to suggest changes to revise FGI’s 2022 Guidelines documents for the next edition. The comment period is the public’s opportunity to review approved changes and suggest modifications to the approved text. Please note that no new proposals will be accepted at this time; only comments on the approved changes will be reviewed by the Health Guidelines Revision Committee.

 

Click below for information about the comment period and the draft 2026 codes, and to access PDF downloads of the draft documents. The comment period will remain open through September 30, 2024.
