Meadowview’s orthopedic care center received the robot on Aug. 16 and has since completed two surgeries. This is the first time a Mako robot has been used locally, according to the report. 

The robot will result in less risk, more precision and faster recovery times for patients in the area. 

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.
