VMG Health is proud to introduce its first ASC Leader Expectations survey report to assist our clients in preparing for 2025.
Ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) have faced numerous challenges in recent years, including significant increases in labor and supply costs, difficulties in recruiting specialized physicians, and struggles with talent retention. Additionally, rising competition from private equity and other non-traditional players continues to reshape the ASC landscape.
To better understand the challenges and growth opportunities that ASCs may encounter in 2025, VMG Health conducted a survey of 137 ASC leaders who represent a variety of roles and organizational types.
The survey explored critical areas, including:
- Financial Outlook
- Transaction Expectations
- Operational Strategy
This report presents essential takeaways that highlight anticipated trends in strategic activities for 2025. Our insights aim to empower both independently owned and joint-ventured ASCs as they prepare for future opportunities and address key issues, particularly in physician recruitment and retention.
