Crystal’s ASC has two operating rooms and two procedural suites, according to a Sept. 19 news release from the health system. Pulse Healthcare System has eight family practice clinics, and the acquisition will help add surgical capacity.

“Adding Crystal ASC to the Pulse Healthcare System allows us to provide state-of-the-art facilities to the many physicians in the Houston area looking for a surgery center,” Smriti Singh, chief strategy officer at Pulse, said in a release. “The current case mix of the center has a desirable allocation among several service lines, including interventional pain, spine, orthopedic, and plastic surgery procedures.”

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.
