Outpatient Programs

Office-Based Procedural

The Office-Based Procedural accreditation is intended for ambulatory facilities performing procedures under sedation in which therapeutic and diagnostic procedures are carried out, which would include gastroenterologists, urologists, gynecologists, pain management physicians, and others. These procedures may include minimally invasive procedures and minor surgical procedures.

Office-Based Surgery

Our Office-Based Surgery program is designed to promote optimal patient safety in the office setting. Accredited centers must comply with standards governing professional training, operational safety, and the physical layout of the center.

Centers with nearly any surgical specialty are eligible for accreditation under this program.
