Intermountain currently has five ASCs across Utah and plans to open more over the next year. This collaboration agreement will accelerate those efforts. 

“Combining [Surgery Partners’] expertise and experience with ours will add significant value for our surgery patients and caregivers and will establish an operating model upon which we can build as we continue to expand outpatient care at other locations,” Mike Clark, Intermountain’s executive lead of ASCs, said in an April 28 news release. 

Nashville, Tenn.-based Surgery Partners — one of the country’s largest ASC chains — has also agreed a deal with Columbus-based OhioHealth to create a company that will grow ASC joint ventures across Ohio.

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
