There’s a clear opportunity and benefit for Ambulatory Surgery Centers to add these procedures. Before you begin, physicians need to be comfortable with the patient going home a few hours after surgery and they need to be assured that plans have been implemented for a smooth and safe transition to recovery at home.
Show physicians data to increase their comfort level and ensure that all staff is involved in the planning process. Implementing total joint replacements impacts the anesthesia teams, sterile processing department, OR teams, and of course, the surgeons themselves. Consider how implementing total joint replacements will impact all of their schedules and workloads.
