Previously published by Tennessee Bar Association on September 10, 2009
The number of ambulatory surgery centers ("ASCs") has continued to grow over the last 10-15 years. A recent report from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services ("CMS") indicated that the number of ASCs enrolled in Medicare increased by more than thirty-eight percent (38%) between 2002 and 2007 and that forty-three percent (43%) of all same-day surgery in the United States is performed in ASCs. This article examines some recent legal and regulatory developments affecting ASCs that should be considered by attorneys who counsel ASCs and their investors.
