Membership

Several Texas ASC Administrators, Physician-owners and other interested parties formalized the establishment of the Texas ASC Society (TASCS). Texas ASCs make up approximately 10% of the ASCs in the United States, large in number in comparison to other states. Despite the number of ASCs, Texas had no unified voice representing the unique and emerging ASC sector.

 

Benefits

The objectives of TASCS also outline the benefits of membership:

  • Develop and promote high standards of patient care in ambulatory surgery;
  • Unify the voice of all ambulatory surgery providers;
  • Gather and disseminate information concerning legislation on the national and state levels which affects ambulatory surgery services, and take appropriate action;
  • Inform the public, governmental agencies and private businesses as to the services offered by ambulatory surgery providers;
  • Collaborate with local, state and national level organizations representing ambulatory surgery providers and other health-related organizations;
  • Initiate, sponsor, and promote educational programs for ambulatory surgery providers;
  • Promote ambulatory surgery as an integral component of the health care industry;
  • Develop a network by which market and industry information can be shared to provide a safer, more cost-effective ambulatory surgery environment.
