As medical technology advances, many procedures requiring anesthesia can now be performed as outpatient care. Many patients favor this option over a hospital stay, as recovering at home is usually more comfortable and cost-effective. As a result, ambulatory surgical centers (ASCs) and outpatient clinics have seen significant growth in their anesthesia programs. In fact, procedure volumes of ASCs are expected to grow 12% in 5 years and 22% over the next 10 years, according to
Sg2’s 2023 Annual Report.
However, ASCs face unique challenges with managing increasing anesthesia needs. Although both ASCs and their clinical counterparts prioritize providing quality care while expanding services and navigating compliance, insurance, and regulatory shifts, ASCs must establish themselves as worthy alternatives to hospitals, often competing with large hospital groups for top-performing medical professionals. Fortunately, ASCs and outpatient clinics can guarantee excellent anesthesia care by choosing a reputable anesthesia services provider.
Outlined below are a few features of anesthesia services providers designed to help any ASC or clinical partner optimize their anesthesia care.
Providing top-tier talent
Sourcing and recruiting qualified (and experienced) anesthesia providers can be a time-consuming task. Fortunately, collaborating with an anesthesia services partner can alleviate this burden entirely. With extensive connections in the medical sector, anesthesia services partners can find candidates best suited for every practice model and facility. Additionally, they handle the credentialing and licensing process, compensation, and travel logistics, and provide ongoing professional development to ensure their anesthesia professionals are prepared to succeed in any clinical environment. harge check-ins.
Improving facility reputation
Top-quality patient safety and care are imperative to building and maintaining the reputation of medical facilities. Patients need to feel like they can trust their doctors and care team throughout the treatment process, but issues related to anesthesia and pain management can quickly lead to negative consequences such as lost revenue and procedure cancellations. Anesthesia services providers not only specialize in providing exceptional patient care and safety during procedures, but also ensure patients feel prepared and cared for throughout their experience, from the preoperative assessment through post-discharge check-ins.
