PMSCO Healthcare Consulting provides a complete range of services-including start-up and on-going management services for ambulatory surgery centers (ASC). Ambulatory surgery centers are unique physician practice opportunities that allow physicians to own a facility as well as benefit from the facility payments for the services provided.

While the opportunity for physicians is great, there are also many issues to consider when developing and managing an ASC. The development process, as well as the accreditation surveys, can be intimidating. PMSCO's management consultants, with extensive experience in acute care, ambulatory care, and payor environments, can help.

In other cases, even successful hospital-owned facilities need management or consultative assistance. We also specialize in regulatory compliance and accreditation, leading successful accreditation efforts with AAAHC.
