By Michael Cassidy on March 2, 2018

Pennsylvania Act 70 of 2017, a copy of which is attached, changes the definition of an ambulatory surgical facility by redefining the duration of the “services” to be 24 hours, rather than a 4 hour procedure and 4 hours of supervised recovery imposed by 28 Pa. Code Section 551.21, a copy of which is also attached.

It takes effect in 60 days.  Since it was passed on December 22, 2017, it is effective now.
