The ASGE recognizes endoscopy units that show a commitment to patient safety and quality in endoscopy. More than 600 endoscopy units have received the recognition since 2009.
To be recognized, clinics must follow ASGE’s guidelines on privileging, quality assurance, endoscope reprocessing, CDC infection control guidelines and ensuring endoscopy staff competency.
The certificate is renewable every three years, according to the report.
At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
