Good Morning,
We just got done with a CMS survey and were cited on the fact that our Endoscopy Procedure Rooms are not negative pressure. We are a 2-room endoscopy center. We only do EGDs and colonoscopies. Does anyone have any insight into this? None of the hospitals in our area have negative pressure endoscopy rooms that I am aware of. Any related articles anyone can share? I'd appreciate it.
