At Surgimon, we believe that relentless aspiration for performance improvement defines our ability to make a difference. We evaluate our contribution to hospital efficiency by surgeon satisfaction, operating room time reduction, and cost savings. But above all else is patient safety, which is why Surgimon sustains its quality assurance plan in accordance with its accreditation by the The Joint Commission.
