The 150,000-square-foot facility will offer services including an ASC, imaging and select cancer treatments, Douglas Cates, chief strategy officer at UC Health San Diego, told the Union Tribune. It will also house outpatient clinics for pulmonary, sleep medicine, rheumatology and surgical oncology.
UC Health San Diego officials told the publication they expect all services at its nearby facility in the Via Tazon neighborhood to be relocated to the new facility once it is completed. The center is slated to open in fall 2026, pending public and university approvals.
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.
