The sum includes $176 million to expand capacity at the University Medical Center of El Paso and build an ASC, the report said. The hospital said it needs nine more operating rooms, six of which would be part of the ASC.
The proposal will be put to a vote Sept. 12, the report said.
At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
