Ambulatory Surgical Centers (ASCs) in North Dakota are certified by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) to take part in the Medicare and Medicaid programs.
An Ambulatory Surgical Center is a facility that provides surgical services to patients who do not need to stay in a hospital. Care in an ASC is designed so that patients can go home within 24 hours after being admitted.
To operate as an ASC, the facility must have an agreement with CMS to participate in Medicare. It must also meet the federal Conditions for Coverage found in Subparts B and C of 42 CFR 416.25–52.
