Who is Rockford Ambulatory Surgery Center?

Based in Rockford, Illinois, Rockford Ambulatory Surgery Center is designed to offer patients a safe, comfortable and hygienic place to have their procedures performed by their own surgeons. Locally, we are known as RASC. Since 1994, we have performed more than 150,000 procedures of various kinds in our center.

At RASC, we care for people of all ages, including children. We also accept major insurance carriers including Medicare.

Because RASC is an ambulatory surgery center, physicians are not employed by the facility. That gives you the power to pair your own doctor with our facility and our expert medical staff. When discussing your options with your surgeon, be sure to “Ask for RASC”. We look forward to being a part of your healthcare journey.

Am I a Good Fit for Outpatient Surgery at RASC?

At RASC, we provide care to a broad spectrum of patients, ranging from two-year-olds to the elderly. We pride ourselves on creating a peaceful atmosphere that reduces anxiety for our youngest clients. By allowing children to familiarize themselves with our space beforehand, we ensure a calm and prepared experience for both them and our staff. Parents are welcome to be with their children up until surgery commences.

For our senior patients, the easy access is a priority. You can drop off directly in front of the entrance and our parking lot is free. Scheduled surgeries mean that a hassle-free visit is a standard part of the RASC experience.

We Strive for 100% Patient Satisfaction

RASC's commitment to complete patient satisfaction drives us to continually seek out and integrate patient feedback. We encourage each patient to contribute to our quality improvement process through our satisfaction surveys, pinpointing areas where we can excel. Our all-encompassing care protocol, which begins from the first consultation to the support we provide post-surgery, is crafted with attention to detail. This commitment is reflected in our 99% satisfaction rating, underscoring the expertise of our medical professionals, the modern technology and comforts of our facilities, and the unwavering support of our administrative staff.

We Believe in Transparent Pricing

You are protected from what is known as “surprise billing.” This is when you are involuntarily attended by someone who is not in your insurance provider’s network. It can often take place during an emergency. As always, be sure to check with your provider for accurate information on in- and out-of-network services. For more information on “surprise billing” and your rights, see our No Surprise Billing Disclosure.
