The Somerville, N.J.-based hospital wants to create an orthopedic center with 35 inpatient rooms and a rehabilitation gym. The new orthopedic space would also free up space to convert patient rooms in the hospital to private rooms.

The expansion would also include a 10-bed rapid decision unit for emergency department patients and reduce wait times. A zoning board is expected to review the proposal March 16.

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.
