The closure comes after the November announcement that Hill Country Memorial Hospital was acquired by San Antonio Methodist Hospital. San Antonio Methodist Hospital will assume ownership of the Hill Country Memorial care network at the end of March.
“We’ve determined that’s the most appropriate service to provide in the community,” Amanda Stevens, chief strategy officer for Hill Country Memorial Hospital, told the publication.
Ms. Stevens said the acquisition had nothing to do with the decision to close the center.
The hospital’s specialty clinic, which opened in May, will continue to operate, according to the report.
The ASC offers general outpatient surgery, obstetrics and gynecology.
At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
