: Blue Chip - Hospital Joint Venture ASCs - Why Less is More.

As demonstrated by several clinically distinguished and highly profitable centers around the country, the innovative "less is more" approach confirms hospitals don't need to assume 51 percent equity positions and major management responsibilities to meet their objectives for ASC investments. Wednesday, September 12, 2012, 1:00-2:00 PM CT.
