Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The “Next Wave” of Joint Ventures and Strategic Partnerships for MSK-Focused ASCs and Surgeons

Q: How are the economics and site of service shifting the balance of power between hospitals, ASCs, and physician groups?

Economic drivers point toward hospitals needing to participate in outpatient ASC strategy or partner with physician groups to stay competitive, with examples from Ascension and USPI and a broader trend toward outpatient MSK amplification and cross-institution collaboration.

The “Next Wave” of Joint Ventures and Strategic Partnerships for MSK-Focused ASCs and Surgeons

Q: So what are the most innovative partnership structures you're seeing emerge between surgeons, hospitals, ASC operators, PE firms, and strategic capital partners?

The panel highlights a shift toward hospital-PE joint ventures with strategic alliances that span anesthesia staffing, multi-party ventures like the four-way model with Hospital for Special Surgery, Legion, and General Atlantic, and broader collaborations that bring hospitals, physician groups, and ASC operators under unified governance and common policies.

Advancing Outpatient Joint Replacement Through Patient-Centered Leadership

Q: Introduce yourself and describe your role and what has been commanding most of your attention as a leader.

Dr. Bashyal explains his clinical focus in outpatient hip and knee replacement, his leadership roles across Endeavor Health and the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine, and emphasizes keeping patient experience and outcomes at the center while navigating market contraction.

Leading Through Uncertainty in Academic Medicine

Q: In a year marked by rapid change, what leadership decisions required the most conviction, particularly around aligning people, resources, and capabilities?

He discusses navigating between two parent institutions (the hospital system and the university), managing resource constraints, building a large ambulatory network, and ensuring the department remains patient-focused while the overall system tightens margins.

Leading Through Uncertainty in Academic Medicine

Q: So Dr. Levine, thank you for being here; tell us more about your roles and what commands most of your attention as a leader.

Dr. Levine introduces himself as Chairman of Orthopedics at NY-Presbyterian Columbia Orthopedics and Fellowship Director, highlighting his hands-on clinical role alongside leadership responsibilities. He emphasizes balancing clinical duties with administrative duties, and the ongoing challenge of aligning hospital and university goals while maintaining patient-centered care.
