In a transformative move, Ascension announced it will acquire AMSURG, adding over 250 ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) across 34 states to its network. The acquisition significantly boosts Ascension’s outpatient capabilities in gastroenterology, ophthalmology, orthopedics, and more.
“This isn’t just an acquisition—it’s a deep alignment with our mission to deliver compassionate, accessible care,” said Joe Impicciche, CEO, Ascension.
AMSURG, known for its physician-led joint ventures, brings decades of operational expertise and strong outcomes in outpatient care. The deal positions Ascension to lead the shift from inpatient to community-based care while supporting independent physician groups and health systems.
