Policies Affecting Your Care
Advance Directives Policy
It is the policy of Pacific Surgery Center to respect patient self-determination. Surgery and procedures done at Pacific Surgery are elective procedures and have a short duration, therefore Advance Directives will not be honored by this facility.
At the time of admission, any patient that presents with an Advance Directive will be informed of this policy. A copy of the Advance Directive will be placed in the patient’s chart.
In the event of a transfer of the patient to another facility, every effort will be made to send a copy of the Advance Directive to that facility.
The administrator of Pacific Surgery Center shall periodically monitor the legal status of Advance Medical Directives and will track State and Federal Regulations as they are modified.
Physician Ownership Policy
Pacific Surgery Center was founded by a group of physicians as a means to provide patients and physicians with a quality outpatient surgery center in a caring, comfortable environment. In keeping with Federal regulations regarding physician owned facilities, we are required to inform you that the physician who will be performing your surgery may be a partial owner of the Center. A portion of the fee for use of the facility may be distributed to physicians with ownership interest.
If you have any concerns about this, please discuss it with your surgeon.
