Here are four key notes:
1. In 2015, Advocate and SCA entered a joint venture agreement to acquire and develop a surgery center network, paving the way for SCA’s partnership with Naperville Surgical Centre.
2. Through the partnership, Naperville Surgical Centre will be a SCA, Advocate and DMG joint venture.
3. Naperville Surgical Centre’s providers offer services including orthopedics, ophthalmology, otolaryngology, urology, gynecology and podiatry.
4. SCA operated 194 surgical facilities and was in partnership with nearly 2,800 physicians as of March 31, 2016.
“We are excited to partner with the physicians of Naperville Surgical Centre and to collaborate with Advocate and DMG to serve the community’s outpatient surgical needs,” said David Spaccarelli, VP of operations for SCA in Illinois. “This partnership expands SCA’s position in the Chicago market as a leading provider of high-quality, low-cost surgeries.”
