ASC Timeline
1968
Wallace Reed, MD, and John Ford, MD, commit their idea for a freestanding ambulatory surgery facility to paper for the first time and develop objectives for the facility. They begin collecting endorsements from the governmental bodies and members of the health care community to obtain financing for the project.
1970
Reed and Ford’s idea becomes reality when on February 12 Surgicenter, the nation’s first freestanding ambulatory surgery facility, opens for business. Five physicians perform five procedures at the facility that day, four requiring general anesthesia.
1974
The Society of Freestanding Ambulatory Surgical Care (ASCA’s original name) is incorporated during an ASC seminar conducted in Phoenix, Arizona.
1975-1976
Rapid growth. A total of 42 surgery centers are in operation in the US by 1975 and an additional 25 facilities open in 1976.
![Page 8: 5 david shapiro-ambulatory-surgery-centers-in-usa_ncas_2011](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052522/54bc0d064a7959c46a8b4582/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
1979
The industry continues to grow, with the number of ASCs reaching triple digits. ASCA and others join together to form the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC).
1982
Medicare approves payment to ASCs for approximately 200 procedures, which are placed in one of four payment groups with payment rates between $231 and $336, based upon a cost survey of 40 ASCs.
1987
Medicare modifies the ASC list to use specific CPT codes and expands the list to include 1,535 procedures.
1988
The number of ASCs in the US reaches 1,000. Using the information from a 1986 cost survey of ASCs, Medicare implements a new payment system, which remains the basis for ASC payments today.
ASC Timeline
![Page 9: 5 david shapiro-ambulatory-surgery-centers-in-usa_ncas_2011](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052522/54bc0d064a7959c46a8b4582/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
1995
ASCs go international when the International Association for Ambulatory Surgery (IAAS) is founded during the 1st International Congress on Ambulatory Surgery in Brussels. Medicare expands the ASC list to cover more than 2,000 procedures.
2002
Seventy-eight individuals earn the CASC credential, the first-ever ASC-specific credential, establishing the ASC administrator as a separate and distinct career from other health care management and clinical positions.
2011
More than 5,300 ASCs exist in the US today, performing 23 million surgeries annually. Medicare has granted approval for ASCs to perform more than 3,500 procedures.
