Outpatient Surgery Centers Expected To Have A ‘Strong Decade’

Surgery centers are going to be in demand through 2030, according to an Albany Business Journal report that examined the Ambulatory Surgery Centers (ASC) market.

Here are three insights from the report:

— The worldwide outpatient surgery market is expected to hit $93 billion by 2025, a drastic increase from 2017’s $61 billion.

— The growing migration of procedures from the inpatient to the outpatient space, too, is evidence of the effect surgery centers can have on healthcare.

— In Albany, N.Y., for example, at least six surgery centers have been proposed, approved or completed over the last two years, and several area hospitals began building or partnering for their own surgery centers.

More than 200 ASCs have been opened or announced since January 2019. Click here for a breakdown by month and state.
