The health system told Hanover County that it would no longer seek zoning approval to develop a medical campus that would include an ASC. According to the report, HCA still wants to construct a surgery center but is looking for alternative sites for the facility. 

HCA did not comment on why it decided to pull the campus’s zoning application, which also included a hospital and other facilities. The system had previously won CON approval for the center after two consecutive rejections due to pushback from rival system Cincinnati-based Bon Secours. 

At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
