Ambulatory Surgery Center Industry Overview
The global ambulatory surgery center market size was valued at USD 75.2 billion in 2018 and is expected to reach USD 120.8 billion by 2026, registering at a CAGR of 6.1% over the forecast period. Increasing demand for minimally invasive surgeries, technological developments in surgical devices and equipment, and surgeons’ control over the choice of such equipment are some of the factors responsible for ASC market growth.
Rising healthcare costs are a major concern plaguing the industry and with it comes the fact that not many patients can afford the treatment they need, including surgical procedures. This has compelled healthcare providers to come up with new ways to make such services more affordable while also focusing on quality. ASCs have proven to be an effective solution in this scenario.

High hospitalization costs have also translated into dipping patient admissions in hospitals, with the number of outpatient visits witnessing a surge. According to the American Hospital Association, the total number of outpatient admissions increased from 624 million in 2008 to 675 million in 2012, while the number of inpatient admissions decreased from 35.76 million to 34.40 million in the same duration. The hike in outpatient admissions can also be attributed to the adoption of technologically advanced techniques in outpatient centers, rendering treatment cost-effective and speedier. Advanced surgical methods in such settings enable tests and procedures to be performed without hospital admission.
The rising number of collaborations and acquisitions in the field is also a key factor expected to drive the ASC market through 2026. In January 2017, Surgical Care Affiliates, Inc. (SCA) and Optum entered into an agreement to expand OptumCare’s capabilities in outpatient surgical procedures. In December 2016, SCA collaborated with Midwest Center for Day Surgery. The partnership was aimed at expanding SCA’s position as a low-cost, high-quality surgical services provider in Chicago. In addition, in December 2016, SCA entered into a partnership with Surgery Center at Doral (SCD) to enhance its presence in Miami. This collaboration was targeted to help provide high-quality surgical care at low costs to patients.
