The hospital introduced the outpatient procedure in November 2020.

“The most important element in outpatient total joint replacement is a highly trained and efficient team,” orthopedic surgeon Christopher Patton, MD, told the Daily News. “Having that level of expertise here at Greenview positively impacts every step along the patient journey, from helping fine-tune patient selection protocols and ensuring optimal surgical care to postsurgical physical therapy and follow-up.”

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.
