The healthcare landscape is experiencing a significant transformation with the rapid growth of Ambulatory Surgery Centers (ASCs). These specialized facilities, which focus on providing same-day surgical care, including diagnostic and preventive procedures, have become an increasingly popular alternative to traditional hospital-based surgeries. Here are some powerful growth data points from Secured Research:

• In 2014, 9% of healthcare capex in the middle market was through ASCs. In 2023, it was 38%.
• The average ASC capex spend was $2,035,850 per year with the median being $1,598,761
• The average capex for a new facility buildout is $6,740,000
• 82% of ASCs are owned independently from a hospital network.
• 45% are single location (and falling fast as the growth opportunity mounts)
