When will the Ames Surgery Center open?

Because the Ames Surgery Center will be pursuing Medicare certification, it is required to have a small number of procedures performed and then surveyed. This will occur during the period covering November 7, 2024, through the end of 2024. Once Medicare certification has been achieved, Medicare beneficiaries can be seen at the ASC. We anticipate that will occur in early January 2025. After Medicare certification is received, the surgery center can then start seeing commercial payers like United Healthcare and Wellmark of Iowa.
