Crosstown Surgery Center and Eagan Surgery Center, both in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area, have added Green OR collection bins, the company said in a Dec. 13 LinkedIn post.. The company gathers deposited devices and reprocesses them so they can be used again at a cost savings of up to 50 percent, according to Green OR’s parent company DeRoyal.

“Instead of discarding [single-use orthopedic devices] to waste, just fill our collection bins and ‘recycle,'” the company said in the post.

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.
