The ASC will be composed of two operating rooms, an endoscopy suite and space for presurgical prep and post-surgery recovery. The Houston, Mo.-based hospital has 26 physicians across various specialties, including cardiology, general surgery, emergency medicine and gastroenterology, according to its website.

The funding is in addition to the $1 million Texas County Memorial Hospital recently received from a U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Development grant, 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.
