Legislative & Regulatory Advocacy

Advocacy is FSASC's top priority. We work year-round to represent Florida ambulatory surgery centers and protect the interests of the ASC community at the state and regulatory level.

Why Advocacy Matters

FSASC maintains an active presence in Tallahassee through a dedicated advocacy team, professional lobbyists, and the support of our members. We monitor legislation, regulatory activity, and public policy initiatives that impact ambulatory surgery centers across Florida.

SurgiPAC

Support the Voice of Florida ASCs

Support from FSASC members has allowed the association to establish SurgiPAC, helping support legislators who understand and champion the ASC industry. Advocacy efforts help ensure ambulatory surgery centers maintain a strong voice in Tallahassee and throughout the regulatory process.
