The joint venture and some local physician partners have already begun planning ASC locations, including a multispecialty ASC in Bonita Springs, Fla., and a hyperspecialty orthopedic ASC on the NCH Baker Hospital downtown campus in Naples, Fla.
The partnership will use Leawood, Kan.-based ValueHealth’s technology that includes patient care management, payer bundles and warranty contracts. Naples-based NCH Healthcare will be integrated into ValueHealth’s ASC network of more than 30 health system partners.
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.
