Mr. Dameron shared the following insight on the law firm’s blog:

“Profitability of a surgery center is complex, and the forecast you’re given isn’t always accurate from an income standpoint. … make sure you have enough surplus in your budget that you can cover most of the buy-in loan — maybe all [of the buy-in loan], if it’s a new surgery center and isn’t yet profitable — and not rely on the surgery center income.”
