White Paper on ASCs as Models of Care, Efficiency and Profitability Available From Siemens

Siemens Financial Services has produced a white paper demonstrating the value ASCs can offer to hospitals to assist in containing and reducing costs.

 

The white paper, titled "Jewels in the Hospital Crown: Ambulatory Surgery Centers as Models of Care, Efficiency and Profitability," is based on interviews with executives at five hospital systems with ownership in freestanding ASCs and interviews of other ASC experts.

 

It provides several case studies of freestanding ASCs owned by hospitals and additional research and analysis which support the white paper's conclusions that ASCs are beneficial to hospitals, physicians and patients in the following ways:

  • hospitals realize reduced overhead while gaining space for new services and procedures;
  • physicians value the opportunity to treat patients at a facility that has neither the bureaucracy of a hospital nor the risks of a doctor's office; and
  • patients appreciate the increased accessibility, being able to drive in, undergo a procedure, and return home in a few hours, all without the anxiety often associated with hospital visits.
