Seventy-three ASCs owned by SCA Health, affiliate of Optum, are among the best in the U.S., according to Newsweek's "America's Best Ambulatory Surgery Centers" list, which ranks 550 of the more than 5,000 Medicare-certified ASCs in the country.
The rankings, created through a partnership with global research firm Statista, includes ASCs in the 25 states with the most facilities, according to CMS data, by individual state, and groups facilities in the remaining states into four regions: Midwest, Northeast, South and West.
Rankings were based on recommendations from medical professionals and analysis of the facilities' performance data.
Below are the 73 SCA Health ASCs that made the list, listed in alphabetical order in their respective states.
