Physicians' interest in investing and practicing in independent ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) has grown. In the face of physician involvement in ASC development, healthcare organizations must contend with possible loss of surgical volume and revenues as well as decreased physician support and loyalty to the organization. Healthcare organizations can encourage physicians to remain in the organization by addressing physicians' concerns about the financial prospects and efficiency of independent and hospital-based ambulatory surgical arenas.
