The Medicare & Accreditation Surveys are becoming tougher - and more frequent. Understanding the Conditions for Coverage for an ASC as well as how they are interpreted by CMS is critical for ASC leaders. This resource takes the Conditions for Coverage, the Interpretive Guidelines & the Clarifications and presents the information in an easy to read format with extensive cross-referencing and annotations. Also included in the book are copies of the forms used by surveyors, including the 11/2010 revised Infection Control Survey Form. The appendices also include the Interpretive Guidance for surveyors when determining "Immediate Jeopardy" and a copy of Appendix I - the Interpretive Guidance for the Life Safety Code. The appendices contain the recent clarifications regarding Flash Sterilization, Separate Waiting areas and the December 2010 clarifications regarding the History and Physicals.
