What Is the SRC?

The SRC develops and administers accreditation programs for hospitals and freestanding outpatient facilities, and for surgeons and other medical professionals. These programs improve the quality of care and patient safety and aim to lower the costs associated with treatment. The organization accredits the top surgeons and physicians, helping even the best in their class improve using intrinsic fundamentals for safe and effective patient care. The SRC reports surgeons who complete the Master Surgeon program and maintain their accreditation have fewer post-operative complications and lower facility costs. The organization analyzes patient reports to ensure high-quality patient care and safety.

Surgeons must submit patient cases for review and have random chart reviews during the inspection portion of the accreditation process. The SRC database tracks and analyzes patient outcomes to measure the improvement in care. The five-step process includes inspections, accreditation, and maintaining accreditation.

A “Master Surgeon,” such as Dr. Kuzinkovas, is a cut above a “Surgeon of Excellence” because the master program requires higher case volumes and is an individualized program separate from the hospital or facility. Dr. Kuzinkovas has shown a commitment to patient safety and results to achieve and maintain accreditation as a Master Bariatric Surgeon and operate a Center of Excellence.

These credentials give Dr. Kuzinkovas recognition and distinction in addition to his extensive training and experience.
