In 2022, the Kirksville City Council zoned 170 acres of land for an ASC, but upon receiving community feedback, Hannibal Regional decided to shift its plans.
The health system will instead build a cancer care center — something the town of Kirksville has not had since 2020.
The health system is still considering adding an ASC in Kirksville eventually, but if actioned, the project will happen further down the road, according to the report.
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.
