And, obviously, the cognate "access conditions" would be the literal translation, but I think the sense in which this is used -- by implication -- is "restriction", as in "restricted access", a more common English phrase. : )

disagree  Jane Lamb-Ruiz (X): this has nothing to do with physical access or such like; it has to do with acceptance..not everyone is accepted into these institutions for treatment.help..access sounds like handicap access or such like

  -> Jane, I don't believe I mentioned physical access. It didn't occur to me and access does not imply handicap access.

condições de acesso
allowed access conditions (or: conditions of access)


Explanation:
Human rights NGOs, family members, and lawyers were allowed access to some detention facilities; however, International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) visited detention facilities in Jammu and Kashmir (see Section 4). Fifteen states and union territories have authorized the NHRC to conduct surprise check-ups on jails. The NHRC's "Special Rapporteur and Chief Coordinator of Custodial Justice" helped implement its directive to state prison authorities to perform medical check-ups on all inmates. [...]

Explanation:
It seems like changing the structure would help here.

not everybody can get in..but that is not access in English..quer dizer que nem tudo mundo é aceito...

if you insist on using the same structure the idea is Acceptance

Acceptance conditions..

in English, we say: to be accepted into a program of this kind...
