Welcome to a special episode of the ASC Podcast with John Goehle. In this episode, the staff of Ambulatory Healthcare Strategies and some of our patron members attending ASCA 2023 talk about some of their observations after the first two full days of ASCA 2023 in Louisville Kentucky. We apologize for the exceptionally poor sound quality of the recording which was not recorded in our studios. You may find listening with headphones is easier than on a speaker. Again we are sorry about the quality.
This episode is sponsored by Surgical Information Systems, triValence and Ambulatory Healthcare Strategies.
