Ambulatory surgical services

Ambulatory surgical services refer to medical procedures performed in a surgical center where patients do not require an overnight stay. These facilities offer a range of surgeries that are typically less complex, allowing patients to go home the same day after recovery. Common examples include procedures like knee arthroscopy or cataract surgery. Ambulatory surgical centers are designed to be efficient, often resulting in lower costs and quicker recovery times compared to traditional hospitals. They focus on providing quality care in a comfortable environment, ensuring patients receive the necessary support before and after their procedures.
