Heart Procedures Are Moving Out of Hospitals

Cardiac interventions are popping up more in ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs), especially in socially vulnerable areas—15% more, in fact! A new nationwide study found that these non-hospital centers are just as safe as outpatient hospital departments for certain heart procedures, but patients love them for the lower costs and convenience. The trend is only growing, and it looks like ASCs are here to stay for heart care. Would you choose an ASC over a hospital? #HeartHealth #HealthcareTrends #MedicalNews #Cardiology #ASC #Health
