WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to
join the Texas Ambulatory Surgery Center Society in recognizing
April 14, 2021, as Texas Ambulatory Surgery Center Day; and
WHEREAS, Ambulatory surgery centers provide high-quality,
low-cost procedures to patients who desire outpatient surgery and
the ability to return home quickly for comfortable recovery; and
WHEREAS, Texas ambulatory surgery centers are becoming a
preferred alternative to hospitals and other institution-based
forms of health care for acute care services; outpatient centers
provide care to hundreds of thousands of citizens each year; and
WHEREAS, In addition to offering lower-cost alternatives
to patients, ambulatory surgery centers significantly affect the
economy by saving the Texas health care system millions of
dollars; and
WHEREAS, It is beneficial to all Texans to raise awareness
about the advantages of ambulatory surgery centers and to
celebrate the high standards the centers uphold and the excellent
services they provide; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 87th
Legislature, hereby recognize the health care professionals and
administrators who serve at ambulatory surgery centers around
the state and extend best wishes to all on the occasion of Texas
Ambulatory Surgery Center Day; and, be it further
