The single-specialty surgery center will add to the ASC already at One Nineteen. It will be a 9,600-square-foot center specializing in colonoscopies and other procedures.
“[The ASC] means low-cost, easy access care for our patient care that’s convenient for them” and it “gives an opportunity for us to align with our physicians in a different way,” Brenna Powell, chief strategy officer for Birmingham-based St. Vincent’s Health System, told the Journal.
A certificate of need was granted for the ASC in July.
The facility is slated to open in April 2022.
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.
