Surgical practices face specific challenges regarding the planning, set up, and accreditation of their facilities. From anesthesia contracting, to equipment purchasing, to accreditation, running and maintaining an ASC can be a daunting task tangled in red tape for physician-owned practices. However, properly planned and managed, they can be extremely profitable and the difference between “getting by” and running a thriving practice. Vision Consulting has extensive experience in this field and can handle all aspects of your ASC, saving you money and taking the hassle away completely.
