The ASC Administrator’s Dilemma

Asking ASC leaders to operate outside their skill set introduces risk. Administrators have little training or experience to assess benefits plans, respond to HR complaints, or oversee the preparation of tax documents. Just operating within their existing talents interviewing new nurse candidates, training new team members, and setting schedules can leave them stretched thin.

MedHQ experts & technology support your team to manage an efficient, high-powered ASC that can deliver exceptional patient experience and maximize performance.

Same Job Title/Different Skill Set

Hospitals and ASCs post for the same positions, but they are looking for entirely different people. Hospital OR nurses and ASC OR nurses are looking for different things from the job and bring different skill sets to the job. Hiring fast and correctly is critical because at an ASC – just one person can impact the ability to perform surgery or open an additional OR.

Hospital OR Nurse


Specialist


Focused on Clinical Procedures


Bigger, longer, more complex procedures


On call


Higher Pay

ASC OR Nurse


Generalist


Focused on clinical procedures, pre-op prep, room turnover, communication with patients & family


Predictable procedures


Not On call


Lower Pay

A Case Study in Case Costing

Financial issues at ASCs need to be caught in days – not weeks or months.

Case costing is straight-forward at a hospital where every supply is bar-coded for easy scanning and billing. At an ASCs, there is no global billing. Supplies are included in the contracted reimbursement for each case—supplies are not itemized. Regular and rigorous reporting is needed to protect margin on procedures.

At one of our ASC clients, MedHQ’s Accounting department uncovered a physician who was using more expensive equipment compared to other physicians at the same center. When this financial info was shared, the physician changed supplies—it was an issue more of ignorance rather than negligence and a cost that would not have been uncovered or controlled without our reporting.

Case Costing Result

The supply switch saved $800/week or $42,000/year.

The cumulative impact of these reporting revelations is what drives center profitability.
