The Ambulatory Surgery Center Association (ASCA) is seeking candidates to serve on the ASCA Board of Directors (members also serve on the ASCA Foundation Board). Having well-qualified individuals serve in leadership to guide ASCA is critical as our community confronts today’s challenges. If you know of an individual who has the skills, experience, and a commitment to devote time and energy to ASC advocacy, please see if they are interested in serving on the ASCA/ASCA Foundation boards, and, if so, nominate them. Self-nominations are also welcome.
To nominate someone, you must complete this form and return it by March 18, 2025, with the nominee’s resume or CV, two letters of recommendation (with one preferably from an individual with whom the nominee has interacted while engaged in service to the ASC community, such as senior staff from an ASCA member management company, a state ASC association leader or, in the case of a physician candidate, a leader from his or her medical specialty society), and a statement describing the special expertise and qualities of that individual. There are five openings this year.
Priority consideration for nominations will be given to those candidates who have served on ASCA/ASCA Foundation committees and/or state ASC association boards or committees, have participated in state and national legislative grassroots activities, or have contributed to state and national ASC political action committees.
Preference will also be afforded to those with the CASC credential, where appropriate, based on the candidate’s employment. In addition, to ensure that the board is geographically diverse, preference will be given to qualified candidates from the Sunbelt and Midwest.
Board members serve on both the ASCA and ASCA Foundation boards, attend at least three board meetings per year, work with committees, participate in ASCA activities, promote the ASC community and work on a variety of strategic projects throughout the year. New board members participate in a comprehensive orientation to prepare them for their role. To be eligible, individuals must be a designated representative of a Corporate Member or Facility Member of ASCA. Please note, all nominees selected by the Nominating Committee will be subject to a standard background check before being presented to the Board for a vote.
