Here’s are four things ASCs need to know:
1. In January 2022, psychiatrist Gerald Travis, MD, and Carolina Mountain Psychiatry filed a suit claiming the defendants did not pay for on-call child psychiatric and medical resident training and supervision services at the agreed upon rate.
2. They asked for more than $25,000 in damages.
3. Nancy Lindell, a Mission Health spokesperson, said in a statement shared with Becker’s that “We do not comment on litigation, but are pleased that this case has been dismissed.”
4 The parties agreed to a settlement in March after a seventh-hour mediation.
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.
