What does surgery center licensure mean?
Facilities with this certification have been required to meet high standards for patient care and safety. It means that the Meridian Center For Surgical Excellence and the Center for Specialty Surgery have met rigorous standards and inspection, just like a hospital does, to insure the safety and professionalism of the facility. Outpatient facilities that have received licensure have established standardized protocols and routines similar to those used in hospitals and have been subjected to rigorous inspections that examine a wide range of issues, from safety equipment and procedures (like backup power and emergency medications) to office layout, staffing, and record-keeping.
