UBMD Ophthalmology, Ira G. Ross Eye Institute to construct 45K-square-foot ASC

The ASC is the second phase in an expansion that also added a $9.6 million, 18,156-square-foot building earlier this year. 

Last year, officials said the new ASC would be 12,000 square feet, but since then, size plans have expanded. 

Orchard Park is home to several ASCs and surgical sites, but none that specialize in ophthalmology. The new ASC will expand retina services for patients in the region, according to the report.  

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.
