Abstract
State regulation of office-based surgical facilities has been ongoing since 1995, making participation in the legislative and regulatory arenas essential for surgeons who practice in this setting. According to the author, onerous state requirements may be averted if key elements facilitating a proactive plan are in place. He presents guidelines for monitoring and influencing the regulatory process. (Aesthetic Surg J 2002;22:89-90.).
