Why ASCs Need to Act Sooner—Not Later
Most ASCs spot problems only after they’ve impacted revenue, staffing, or patient flow. Early warning signs—like fewer cases, more cancellations, or payer delays—are easy to miss.
The data exists. But it’s often buried in complex reports or scattered across systems.
Data Delays Lead to Missed Opportunities
We’ve heard this repeatedly from ASC leaders. Centers are stuck pulling spreadsheets, chasing down reports, and trying to figure out what went wrong after the fact. By the time a clear picture forms, trends have already turned into problems.
The Issue with Generic BI Tools
Many general-purpose BI platforms work well for some industries, but they aren’t built for ASCs. They require long setup times, dedicated analysts, and ongoing support. Even with the right people in place, these tools don’t offer the specific insights that surgery centers need—like OR utilization, revenue by case type, or payer behavior.
They’re powerful tools, just usually not the right ones for the job.
Dashboards Built for ASCs
That’s why we built dashboards, HST’s newest solution with native data visualization designed specifically for surgery centers. It puts key insights directly in the hands of your center, from enterprise leaders to your center’s staff.
No third-party platforms. No complex integrations. Just fast, visual access to metrics that matter—like case volume trends, denial patterns, aging A/R, OR utilization, and more.
Explore all the ways dashboards supports your ASC’s growth here.

Drill Down from Trends to Patient-Level Details

Spot Issues in Minutes—Not Weeks
Instead of waiting weeks for a custom report, centers can now flag and fix issues in minutes.
Centers can:
- Catch verification and authorization problems early
- See and respond to denial trends
- Adjust staffing based on data
- Align staff, clinicians, and leadership with a shared view
When everyone’s looking at the same data, better conversations happen—and faster action follows. Ready to see HST’s dashboards in action? Schedule a demo today and learn how dashboards can help your center make the move to proactive operations.
