Pearl Surgicenter Expands Value-Based Program Despite Pandemic Upending Many Healthcare Companies

PORTLAND ore., January 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — from Portland premier Value Based ASC welcomes new surgeons as it expands with high value-added solutions and growing relationships with PPO insurance plans and self-funded ERISA companies and their interests in cost-effective bundled surgical services .

Pearl Surgicenter offers unparalleled outpatient services and savings compared to other healthcare locations in the area.

The new service lines are highly complementary, adding the following to existing women’s health services:

  • Bariatric surgery
  • Minimally invasive surgery
  • Foregut surgery
  • Colorectal surgery
  • Interventional pain management
  • Gastroenterology

The immediate expansion of service lines offers a solution to surgery backlogs at local hospitals due to the pandemic, by embracing cost-effective day surgery and engaging with highly skilled surgeons.

The result:

  • Reduced cost
  • Reduced complications
  • Improved efficiency
  • Transparent value
  • A better patient experience

“With new laws requiring hospitals to publish contract costs and rates, we can transparently demonstrate the opportunity for massive savings in the day surgery space,” says Dr. Rosenfield, Chief Medical Officer of Pearl.

“Hospitals provide an invaluable service to the community,” continues Rosenfield.

“Working together, we are realizing massive cost savings and improved quality in outpatient settings while reserving hospitals for sick patients and complex cases. Hospitals that choose not to comply will hopefully see the opportunity to help the American healthcare system and be part of a solution.

It’s time for doctors to have a louder voice,” Rosenfield said.

This approach has garnered massive interest from large corporations that have chosen to self-insure and provide health care benefits to employees through ERISA plans.

“Employers are seeing huge savings and improved quality, often waiving the fees and co-payments their employees would traditionally face with a PPO insurance plan.

We are working with phased plans to refer patients, where possible, to a network of providers willing to share outcome and cost data. We offer real and significant savings to employers.”

The results led to Pearl’s expansion, adding massive capacity, overnight stays and more service lines.

“We are thrilled to add exceptional, well-established physicians and a second location to from Portland high-growth West Side, adding to our capacity and continuing to serve surgeons and patients in Oregon and beyond,” says Rosenfield.
