What do Ambulatory Surgical Clinics/Centers do?

Ambulatory Surgical Centers (ASCs) provide same-day surgical and diagnostic care for procedures that do not require an overnight hospital stay, offering a less expensive, more efficient, and convenient alternative to hospital outpatient care.

They are freestanding facilities that focus on elective surgeries and procedures such as colonoscopies, cataract removal, and some orthopedic procedures, performed by specialized medical teams. 

Perform outpatient surgeries: They conduct surgical procedures for patients who can be safely discharged within 24 hours. 

Provide specialized care: ASCs are staffed with licensed surgeons, nurses, and anesthesiologists who specialize in outpatient procedures. 

Offer diagnostic procedures: Common procedures, such as colonoscopies and other gastrointestinal diagnostics, are frequently performed in ASCs. 

Ensure high-quality care: These facilities prioritize patient safety and outcome metrics, consistently exceeding patient satisfaction scores. 

Key distinctions from hospitals

No overnight stays: Unlike hospitals, ASCs are designed for same-day care, meaning patients are not admitted overnight. 

Specialized scope: While hospitals offer a wide range of complex services, ASCs focus on a more defined list of elective surgeries and procedures. 

Lower cost: Patients often pay less at ASCs compared to hospital outpatient departments for the same procedures. 

Greater convenience: Patients benefit from easier scheduling, reduced wait times, and greater accessibility. 

Who uses them

Doctors recommend ASCs for patients who are healthy enough for outpatient care and can return home within a day. 

Patients needing elective, less complex procedures benefit from the personalized, efficient care at ASCs.
