Three areas where ASCs can save money:
1. Supply chain. ASCs can use standardization to save money on supply chain. ASCs can also avoid using single-use vendors and increase consignment.
2. Salary. ASCs can supplement full-time employees with per-diem workers, saving money on salaries.
3. Service contracts. ASCs should consider developing a routine instrument maintenance program for equipment, as well as staff training to educate on how to repair equipment.
