Neurosurgeon Matthew Philips, MD, performed Southcoast Health’s 200th procedure with the system, according to a June 2 news release. The milestone surgery was a posterior lumbar interbody fusion and took place at St. Luke’s Hospital in New Bedford.
Southcoast Health is the first system in Massachusetts to adopt 7D’s surgical system, and it’s the second institution in the nation to reach the milestone. Cleveland Clinic hit the 200-procedure mark less than a month ago.
At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
