That comes to at least 455 new ASCs since 2020, a growth rate of more than 7.8 percent.
Based on Becker's state-by-state figures, since the end of 2019 Florida and Texas added the most ASCs with 43 and 35, respectively. But as a percentage of each state's total, Florida and Texas rank in the middle of the pack for new ASCs.
The two states at the top of ASC growth percentage are Montana, with 38.89 percent, and Alabama, with 32.43 percent.
Becker's has reported on dozens of new ASCs in 2022, including some with whopping price tags. A $161.2 million center in Dublin, Ohio, is opening in September, and the University of Texas Health San Antonio is building a $50 million, 100,000-square-foot ASC.
