Here are three earnings call notes on the company’s orthopedic strategy, according to a transcription by Seeking Alpha:
- By the end of the third quarter, orthopedic and spine procedures made up 20 percent of USPl’s total volume.
- The growth demonstrates the company’s focus on higher acuity service lines, according to Tenet CEO Saum Sutaria.
- Mr. Sutaria cited growth at an ASC in Tennessee, where the center boosted revenue by 46 percent by replacing high-volume, low-acuity procedures with high-acuity orthopedic cases.
