The University of Michigan Health-West and Orthopaedic Associates of Michigan have partnered to develop an orthopedic-focused ASC.
The school’s board of regents approved the partnership as well as the sale of a property in Wyoming, Mich., to a OAM-affiliated entity for $5.99 million during a June 12 meeting, according to a news release from the university.
The new ASC company will be created through a joint venture and will be governed by representatives from both organizations.
The facility will be developed in 2027, the release 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.
