Definition:

The number of hospitalizations for day surgery procedures per 1,000 residents in a given year. This includes surgeries and procedures for which patients do not typically stay overnight in the hospital. Since a person could receive multiple surgeries in a year, this indicator shows the total rate of procedures provided to all residents.
