UCLA Health is planning to close two smaller ASCs in Santa Clarita and Thousand Oaks, Calif., according to an Oct. 16 report from The Signal.
The health system made the decision to close the ASCs as cost-cutting measures and as a way to enhance efficiency.
Nurses, surgical technicians and support staff at the centers who are impacted by the closures have been encouraged to apply for other vacant roles at other UCLA Health facilities.
The centers will close Dec. 5, the report said.
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.
