The Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations will publish a separate standards manual for ambulatory surgery centers that will become effective in January 2007.
The standards, which are expected to be available in the third quarter of 2006, will be similar to the standards that the Joint Commission publishes for office-based surgery providers, according to the Federated Ambulatory Surgery Association.
