As usual, summer is going by fast. Before we know it, it will be August. And of course, August is National ASC Month, which gives surgery centers a special opportunity to highlight their achievements and the value they offer to patients, businesses, and communities throughout Wisconsin and across the country.

For 2023 National ASC Month, WISCA is urging members to help celebrate by hosting tours of their facilities for their local state lawmakers. Hosting a facility tour offers a chance for state legislators to learn about the impact and benefits of ASCs directly from their constituents and businesses in their districts. They allow lawmakers to see firsthand the value of patient care provided in an ASC setting.

Numerous WISCA members have already hosted successful legislative tours over the last few years, but we would urge you to seize the opportunity provided by National ASC Month to maintain the momentum for this critical grassroots advocacy program and invite your local lawmakers to your facility.

If you would like to host a legislative tour at your site, please contact the WISCA office at WISCA@badgerbay.co. We will work with you and your legislators to coordinate the meetings and will provide full support, including legislator bios, advocacy tips, issue briefings, and supporting documents.  In other words, the work will be minimal on your end.
