The robot was secured through a partnership with Zimmer Biomet. To meet the requirements of the deal, the center needs to complete 100 procedures with the robot in the next 12 months. 

The Rosa system creates a surgery plan for each patient with its 3D mapping capabilities. The robot helps the surgeon increase accuracy and precision.

The debut procedure was performed by Stanford Israelsen, MD, the report said. 

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.
