I work for a vascular surgeon who performs outpatient surgery. We also have a Class B facility that has been accredited for approx 10 years. Some insurance companies will not reimburse for a facility charge unless theres a state license. We have been getting conflicted info as to how to describe our "facility", either Ambulatory Surgery Center or Office Based Surgery. We do not participate in any insurance companies and have opted out of Medicare.
Please let me know if you have any knowledge about this situation and what the requirements are to be licensed in NY state and how to best categorize our "facility". Thank you!
