Start Your Own ASC

Start Your Own ASC

Market Conditions are Right

In today’s rapidly changing healthcare environment, patients recognize that they have choices when it comes to their medical care. They are looking for high-quality physicians, state-of-the-art equipment, positive outcomes and convenient care – all at affordable prices. These market drivers have resulted in an increase in both the number of ambulatory surgery centers and surgical hospitals that are opening up across the United States. In fact, our research has uncovered the following:

• 170+ new ASCs are opening up each year.
• 60% of hospitals have an ASC within walking distance.
• Most physicians who staff ASCs are former hospital employees seeking equity in the service they provide – especially those who provide services with specialties that have a greater access to reimbursement now versus prior years.
• The “hospital experience” is becoming a less desirable option for patients who have a choice.

ASC Operational Services

Operational Support

The ASC market is an exciting and growing sector in healthcare. Patients are demanding a choice – and the ASC model delivers the convenience, quality and positive outcomes they expect.

Clinical Excellence

The market is strong for experienced groups who understand the complexities and nuances involved in building and managing quality ASCs that serve local communities. The Partners Surgical clinical team brings decades of top-notch, hands-on experience to every de novo, existing and hospital joint venture ASC partner.
