Over 100 anesthesia providers were hired on staff across 15 ASCs and quality oversight was embedded into the ASC operational program as opposed to being treated as its own silo left to an outsourced provider to oversee.

The anesthesia service solution represented a lower cost option for payors and patients versus competing market alternatives and ASCs retained strategic control over both facility and anesthesia contracts, which left them well-positioned to negotiate with payors.

Approximately one-third of the total ASC network income was derived from anesthesia services.
