Ambulatory Surgery Centers, or ASCs, provide cost-effective, routine surgical care to patients whose needs do not require admission to a hospital. As our healthcare system develops, and the capacity to care for patients in a low-stress setting increases, facilities like ASCs must continue to conform to the same credentialing standards as the more traditional surgical settings. Due to the quick and convenient nature of how Ambulatory Surgery Centers are run, there is a lot of room for compliance to get lost in the shuffle. 1ˢᵗ Credentialing works with ASCs every step of the way to ensure patient care does not slow down when faced with ongoing credentialing and privileging projects.

The Demand for ASCs is Steadily Rising
An increasing number of medical specialties are relying on Ambulatory Surgery Centers to shoulder the burden of routine surgical procedures, including but not limited to:

• Gastroenterology
• Ophthalmology
• Urology
• Dermatology
• Orthopedics
• Neurology

As offerings diversify, the system of credentialing, payor enrollment, and privileging for each of these specialties within the ASC model grows in complexity and time consumption. At 1ˢᵗ Credentialing, we handle this balancing act for you, ensuring accuracy and compliance, so you can focus on serving the changing medical needs of your community.
