Comprehensive ASC Development: Expertise from Planning to Performance

Our consultants, seasoned nurses with over 125 years of collective ASC work experience, leverage their extensive industry expertise to guide ASC and OBSC development projects from financial feasibility to operations launch. At VMG Health, we understand that economic success in surgery centers hinges on efficiency and cost control. Our dedicated financial team partners closely with clients, providing mentorship and training on generating reports, analyzing data, and communicating findings effectively. We tailor our consulting services to include expert financial modeling both pre- and post-development, utilizing advanced models and our proprietary Intellimarker™ benchmarking solution.

This approach allows ASC leaders to pinpoint issues, develop actionable strategies, and drive performance improvements.

VMG Health’s commitment to your success ensures efficiency and continuity in the complex planning and development process, supported by our extensive network of resources in finance, legal, architecture, payer contracting, and equipment. We remain engaged through the launch stage and offer ongoing support to maximize your surgery center’s success.

Turnkey Development: Turnkey development means entrusting our team with every detail of your project, and we’ll deliver a fully optimized surgery center. At VMG Health, our turnkey development solutions include planning, design, construction, and operational launch. Our experts ensure a seamless process and a fully functional ASC.
Financial Feasibility and Pro Forma Services: We provide comprehensive financial feasibility and pro forma services for ASCs, ensuring your investment is viable and profitable. Our expert team conducts thorough financial analyses, including detailed projections and scenario planning, to assess your ASC’s potential success. We deliver customized pro forma reports that outline projected revenues, expenses, and return on investment—so you can make informed decisions and secure necessary funding with confidence.
Licensing, Certification, and Accreditation: State regulations are constantly evolving. Medicare communicates regularly with its surveyors to clarify survey expectations. Accreditation standards are updated annually. We have successfully assisted hundreds of surgery centers navigate the process of licensing, certification and accreditation. Work smarter, not harder by putting our practical experience to work for you.
Mock Survey: ASC mock surveys include a one-day onsite visit to assess compliance with the Medicare Conditions for Coverage, all applicable regulatory and accreditation standards, and best practices. Physical environment mock surveys include a one-day onsite visit to assess compliance with NFPA 101 Life Safety Code for Medicare compliance.
Policy and Procedure Manuals: When was the last time you revised or updated your facility program? Our policy and procedure manuals are fully customized to your facility and developed to assure compliance with state licensure, Medicare certification, and all applicable regulatory and accreditation standards.
Life Safety Code: CMS expects a “complete and comprehensive” assessment of Life Safety Code compliance with every ASC Medicare survey. In the past, this survey focused almost exclusively on the built environment. Today, the LSC survey includes long-standing but seldom checked requirements for the on-going inspection, testing, and maintenance of components in accordance with NFPA Standards. At VMG Health, our experts can help you navigate these requirements and prepare for your next survey with confidence and peace of mind.
