About FSASC

The mission of the Florida Society of Ambulatory Surgical Centers (FSASC) is to advance the ambulatory surgical center industry through government advocacy and to promote the professionalism of its members through education, networking and the exchange of information.

In Florida, FSASC is the only organization that maintains close contact with state agencies to monitor and impact regulations that govern ASCs. Members are provided with a steady flow of vital information to enable centers to operate with state-of-the-art surgical, technical and administrative procedures. FSASC hosts an annual trade show and provides educational offerings, a quarterly newsletter and timely fax and email broadcasts on industry specific items.

FSASC is focused on the advancement of the ambulatory surgical center industry through legislative and regulatory advocacy. The Society maintains an active presence in Tallahassee with full time staff and lobbyist.   On a national level, the Society works cooperatively with both the Federated Ambulatory Surgery Association (FASA) and the American Association of Ambulatory Surgical Centers (AAASC). This cooperation allows FSASC members to add their influence to activities at the Federal level.
