Surgery center chains have consolidated in the last decade to five mega-companies and a handful of small regional chains with growth prospects simmering.
The five largest chains are:
1. USPI (Dallas): 475+
2. SCA Health (Deerfield, Ill.): 320
3. AmSurg (Nashville, Tenn.): 256
4. HCA Healthcare (Nashville): 150+
5. Surgery Partners (Brentwood, Tenn.): 127
These companies may be able to grow a bit through acquiring the few remaining regional chains or partnering with large physician groups, but there is less momentum for developing de novo centers and one-off partnerships with physicians. Instead, they are partnering with hospitals and health systems to develop an outpatient strategy and grow their companies overall.
