About the event
Where leaders shape the future of healthcare
There are many places to hear about the future of ASC growth and operations. Becker’s 32nd Annual: The Business and Operations of ASCs is where the people actually running ASCs convene. This 3-day event is built specifically for ASC executives, administrators, and physician partners. The sessions examine the business, financial and clinical priorities shaping ASCs. Becker’s is where candid discussions flourish and new ideas thrive.
Over 90% of speakers are ASC owners, administrators, physicians and operators. When someone on stage says; “here’s what we tried and what actually worked,” you’re hearing it from someone living the same reality you are.
