The Columbus Surgery Center underwent renovations after the hospital took ownership, and it will once again open to the public in January, the report said. The reopening will be commemorated with an open house event Jan. 13.

The ASC originally opened in 2007 and was formerly owned by ophthalmologist Peter Diedrichsen, MD. It will continue to offer ophthalmology, endoscopy and pain services, the report said.

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.
