Surely.
Thank you for the invite.
Spartan Health Surgery Center is in its 20th year.
We celebrated our 20th year last September.
We're a joint venture with a hospital partner, multi-specialty facility, 15,000 square feet, three ORs, two procedure rooms.
We do a lot of GI, ophthalmology, pain management, orthopedics.
We're located in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania market, Southwest Pennsylvania.
Well, I think a lot of what's gonna propel this movement is physician choice.
A transient physician population as the older physicians retire, the newer younger doctors are coming out of their fellowships and their residencies.
Some of them are very entrepreneurial in spirit, which is very good thing for the surgery center market.
Every couple of years, the CMS Medicare model releases more procedures.
That can be done, allowed to be done in the outpatient setting.
That's providing great opportunity for surgery centers.
20 years ago, it was unheard of to be able to do orthopedic joints.
Now my facility is doing them.
A lot of facilities are being done.
They're being done safely and actually better.
Now there's discussion about having cardiac procedures done in the surgery center setting, which is a phenomenal development and achievement.
The cost savings is very apparent.
It's very transparent.
