How has the ASC space been changing over the last decade?
SB(Seth):
For me, coming from 13 years of ASC experience, when I started, there wasn’t much consolidation. I was with USPI at 130 centers, and we were focused on building really multi-specialty centers there. The trend’s been a lot more focused on consolidation, especially recently there was a migration from some of the higher acuity cases, like total joint and spine, and more recently a real focus on cardiology. But I think we’re seeing a lot more consolidation and focused approach around ASC development.

I’ve been working within healthcare and marketing since 2006. Started off as a marketing director for several hospitals down in South Florida. At that point, was responsible for four hospitals, so a lot of multitasking, sharing best practices, really learning how to strategize across all boards and sharing dollars, stretching those dollars, to maximize all parties involved. Over eight years did that. Moved up into a VP of marketing role that covered 14 hospitals, 17 freestanding ERs, six urgent cares, over a hundred employed providers, overseeing, strategizing and managing the marketing budgets and plans for those asset points. And then moved into more of an account manager role, again, for healthcare clients, not necessarily hospital and health systems, but more in the financial payment solution space, healthcare SaaS, and the payer space. So pretty well versed, I would say. Primarily B2C physician marketing.

The ability to monetize data, to make money out of information. It’s all about business, process improvement. So you get a set of data, you take a look at it and it tells you what you need to do with your business to make it successful.
