The Orthopedic Center at Easton (Md.) has temporarily closed after a vendor issued a recall affecting the facility’s MRI machine, according to an Oct. 22 Star Democrat report.

The center, a partner of University of Maryland Shore Regional Health, shut down Oct. 21 “out of an abundance of caution” while the MRI equipment is evaluated and serviced. The closure affects all operations at the site, which offers imaging, physical therapy, rehabilitation and surgical services, according to the report.

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.
