OAASC 2016 Annual Conference and Infection Prevention Seminar
Last Week for Early Bird Registration Discount
Ohio's ONLY conference exclusively for ASC professionals
September 14 -16
OAASC members, ASC non-members or companies that work with Ambulatory Surgery Centers in Ohio join us for Ohio's only conference dedicated to ambulatory surgery centers. We address ALL the issues important to your center and especially focus on those concerns that impact you as an Ohio ASC professional. There continue to be significant changes in ASC licensure in Ohio. Our conference will address all of those changes and then some.
On September 14 as a part of our preconference, we will host a full day pre-conference infection prevention training for ASC IP professional. Remember that every ASC in Ohio (not just Medicare certified centers) must have a dedicated infection prevention staff person who receives ongoing training and provides in-service training to other staff. This IP training will meet that requirement. And if you attend this as a part of the conference there is a discount.
Join your ASC Colleagues from around Ohio for the premier state ASC conference in the Midwest. September 14-16.
