A friend recently pointed me in the direction of these articles explaining the economics of having an Ambulatory Surgery Center(ASC) that performs pain management procedures.
For those of us that are considering approaching a practice that does not have a pain management service, I think it's very helpful to explain the cost benefits associated with having a pain management specialist in their practice. It also seems helpful for those of us who wish to manage their own ASCs in the future.
Are ACSs worth the investment?
When is the best time to try and set one up? After a few years of being established in your practice? One friend knew a person who set up theirs during their fellowship.
I welcome any insight/opinions from those of you in practice.
