August is National ASC Month

ASCs provide high-quality, cost-efficient surgical care for millions of Americans and have transformed the outpatient experience by offering a convenient and personalized alternative to the hospital outpatient surgical setting.

Thanks to innovations in technique, technology and pain control, surgical procedures once performed only in the inpatient setting are now being performed safely and with high levels of patient satisfaction in ASCs across the country. If you need surgery, or one of the many essential health screening services surgery centers provide, ask your doctor about getting the care you need in an ASC.
