The purpose of this subchapter is to require licensure of all facilities, except as provided in § 44-531.02, in which surgical procedures are performed on persons who are not admitted as inpatients to a hospital, and to provide minimum standards for the establishment and maintenance of such facilities.
(Apr. 6, 1978, D.C. Law 2-66, § 102, 24 DCR 6836.)
Editor's NotesThis section was repealed by section 4 of D.C. Law 6-26; however, pursuant to section 6(b) of D.C. Law 6-26, the repeal will not apply until the Mayor issues rules for ambulatory surgical facilities. As of this date, the Mayor has not issued such rules.
