Mass General Brigham is planning three ASCs — in Westborough, Westwood and Woburn — that would offer surgery, physician services and diagnostic imaging.
The Coalition to Protect Community Care currently includes healthcare providers Wellforce, Shields Health Care Group and UMass Memorial Health, as well as 12 other community and business groups.
The group plans to call for the Massachusetts Department of Public Health to “thoroughly scrutinize MGB’s proposal through the lens of health equity, community demand and cost,” a spokesperson told MetroWest Daily News.
The $400 million ASC expansion is a part of the hospital’s larger $1.9 billion expansion.
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.
