Having an ASC that covers diagnosis and intervention, as well as ongoing monitoring and the delivery of virtual cardiac rehab, may seem like a stretch today, but helping patients through their cardiovascular health journey will continue to evolve in alternative sites of service like ASCs. In order to enhance the value of an ASC investment, we must consider how best to build facilities within today’s cost constraints and health economics models that enable easy department additions in the future.”
