Scott Becker, host of Becker’s Healthcare Podcast, interviews Erik Miller, President of MedHQ, and Mark Garvin, Avanza Healthcare Solutions Executive-in-Residence and leads a conversation around the impact of the maturing outpatient market on the healthcare industry.
The podcast delves into the shifting landscape of outpatient operations and the evolving needs of hospitals.
“Outpatient is growing year-over-year – from ambulatory surgery centers to urgent care to imaging centers. All of these entities need scalable solutions to support their growth and MedHQ provides much needed infrastructure,” explains Miller. “We are at our best when we are nearly invisible inside an organization, providing seamless integration and support. Our role is to empower the organization’s internal processes and systems so effectively that our presence is felt only through the positive outcomes they facilitate, rather than through their direct involvement in day-to-day operations.”
Garvin joined Avanza Healthcare Solutions earlier this year, having retired from USPI after more than 20 years with the company. “Value-based care IS ambulatory surgery,” says Garvin. “It is not only compatible with but also representative of the goals and practices of value-based care. Health systems are wrapping up their ambulatory platform strategies and they need help. Our comprehensive portfolio of advisory and administrative services empower our clients in executing their strategies.”
