This Week In Surgery Centers
Your weekly surgery center podcast
If you’re in the ASC industry, then you’re in the right place.
Every week our hosts will recap the latest news impacting ASCs, and share an interesting conversation we had with our featured guest. New episodes released every Tuesday!
Quality data can be one of the most powerful tools an ASC has to improve both safety and operations. In this episode, Nina Goins, Executive Director of the ASC Quality Collaboration, explains how centers can use benchmarking data to uncover deeper operational issues, strengthen payer and board conversations, and build a stronger culture of quality. She also shares why measures like wrong-site events and unplanned hospital transfers matter so much, how ASCQC’s Safety and Quality Assessment can help centers benchmark best practices, and why a simple daily safety huddle can make a meaningful difference.
In our news recap, we’ll cover the latest wave of ASC development, Leapfrog’s expansion of public ASC quality reporting, new research showing how outpatient surgery growth is creating uneven access across communities, and why anesthesia remains one of the biggest operational risks to ASC growth.
