	H.R. No. 482



	R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, Members of the Texas Ambulatory Surgery Center
	Society are gathering in Austin on March 8, 2023, for Ambulatory
	Surgery Center Awareness Day at the State Capitol; and
	WHEREAS, An alternative to hospitalization for acute care,
	ambulatory surgery centers perform outpatient procedures that
	enable individuals to check out the same day and recover in the
	comfort of their own home; and
	WHEREAS, There are currently more than 500 ambulatory surgery
	centers licensed for operation by the Texas Department of State
	Health Services, and these facilities treat hundreds of thousands
	of patients each year; and
	WHEREAS, By providing quality medical care at a comparatively
	low cost, ambulatory surgery centers are helping to ensure the
	health and well-being of Texas residents, and these facilities are
	indeed deserving of recognition for the important role they play in
	the state's health care system; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas
	Legislature hereby recognize March 8, 2023, as Ambulatory Surgery
	Center Awareness Day at the State Capitol and commend the Texas
	Ambulatory Surgery Center Society for its work; and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
	prepared for the organization as an expression of high regard by the
	Texas House of Representatives.

	Johnson of Dallas
