But it is not quite as simple as wanting
to add new service lines to the ASC
and then watching it happen. As with all
things in the ASC world, a strong partnership
between surgeons and administrative
leadership is required.
Here are other considerations: How
well will this new service fit within your
market? If competing ASCs already
offer the service, is there enough patient
volume in the region to support
a second source? And are those competitors
considered the gold standard in
that service? If so, how do you plan to
overcome that perception? At the same
time, consider what services are greatly
needed in your region but have short
supply and long waiting lists.
Surgeons who will champion your
ASC are an incredibly valuable resource
in building this business. Doctor-todoctor
recruiting is especially effective.
Your surgeons not only know the best
and brightest in your region, they may
know the best and brightest who are
looking to relocate or are unhappy with
their current arrangements and amenable
to moving their practices to an ASC.
This is often the case with younger
surgeons who do not have significant
equity compared to their senior partners
and want more return for their work.
Technological breakthroughs
ASCs may be easier to manage than
a traditional hospital-based perioperative
suite, but that does not mean they
manage themselves. When moving to
an ASC model for efficiency and convenience,
the
last
thing you want
to
do is carry over the inconvenience and
inefficiency of manual scheduling, communication,
and reporting.
In order to completely optimize performance,
case volume, and revenue-
the reasons you went to an ASC model
in the first place-it is time for a digital
transformation as well.
An AI-driven digital platform can revolutionize
how your ASC operates, and if
it is something you have been considering
for the center itself, it also makes
for an excellent pilot program. Let's
start with the data aspect.
Obviously, you want to prove that
your decision to open an ASC is working,
and if it is not, quickly target areas
for improvement. But traditional reporting
methods mostly provide data that
are months out of date, untrusted, or
unactionable. It is hard enough to convince
surgeons that they may need to
