Here are five recent news updates on ambulatory surgery center companies.
The $792 million Surgery Partners and Symbion deal is expected to close in the fourth quarter of this year. Moody's Investors Services gave Surgery Partners a 'B3' rating. Moody's attributed its rating to the company's high level of debt, but offered a positive outlook on the company's place in a growing industry. Standard & Poor's Ratings Service predicts moderate cash flow and stable margins, but mentioned the risk of integration on such a large scale.
In the closing of the $2.35 billion Sheridan Healthcare acquisition, AmSurg paid approximately $2.1 billion in cash and issued 5.7 million shares of common stock.
Harold L. Paz, MD, a United Surgical Partners International board member, will join Aetna as executive vice president and chief medical officer.
