Brachytherapy and ASCs – The Ambulatory M&A Advisor

A cancer treatment program that an ASC might consider implementing and adding to the services it offers is that of brachytherapy to treat prostate cancer.

Dallas, Texas, September 09, 2014 – A cancer treatment program that an ASC might consider implementing and adding to the services it offers is that of brachytherapy to treat prostate cancer. There are many ways in which a brachytherapy program can prove beneficial and profitable for an ASC.

In an article published by The Ambulatory M&A Advisor, the benefits of Low Dose Rate brachytherapy to both the ASC and the patient are explained.

Brachytherapy is performed by a urologist and a radiation oncologist and is an outpatient procedure that can be done in as little as one hour. Low Dose Rate Brachytherapy involves the placing of a “seed” of radioactive material directly inside the tumor.

One of the major benefits of brachytherapy is that it allows the doctor to better control the radiation and decrease impact on healthy tissues.

“Prostate brachytherapy requires a urologist, radiation oncologist, an anesthesiologist for day of procedure as well as a medical dosimetrist or physicist for treatment planning,” said Chief Executive Officer of Prologics Healthcare, LLC, Roger Corle. “Typically ASCs with urology participation or ownership are ideal candidates for starting a prostate brachytherapy program.”

Furthermore, the equipment and licensures needed to implement a prostate brachytherapy program in an ASC are not as expensive as one might initially assume.

The world of Private Equity (PE) can be unfamiliar for many owner operators of ASC and other outpatient surgery centers.

Dallas, Texas, August 27, 2014 – The world of Private Equity (PE) can be unfamiliar for many owner operators of ASC and other outpatient surgery centers. The writers at The Ambulatory M&A Advisor have interviewed several experts in PE to give a deeper understanding into the life cycle of a fund and why PE is interested in the outpatient surgery center sector.

Several terms that might come up in discussing PE are also explained and laid out in the article, which can be read in full here. Overall, the world of PE has a great interest in urgent care centers and the like.

“The services provided by urgent care centers will always be in relatively high demand, resulting in stable, predictable cash flow,” said Neil Blair, Managing Director in the Canadian Corporate Finance group at KPMG. “Investing in health services businesses allows private equity firms to achieve diversification in their portfolios, given that health services are only loosely tied to the economy. Lastly, there may be significant value that urgent care centers could provide in regions that are underserved by healthcare providers, or regions where emergency rooms are overburdened.”
