Michael Strilesky, senior principal at healthcare consulting firm Sg2, told the American Medical Association during a panel discussion that health systems should consider the use of lower cost sites of care such as ASCs and urgent care centers to cut costs, according to a July 13 AMA article.
“We all have to figure out how to get more done for less,” Scott Hayworth, MD, senior vice president and chief physician liaison officer of Optum Health, said in the panel discussion. “And part of that is doing more and more as an outpatient, more and more of that in the home.”
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.
