Thank you @hmpVDM and Dr. Craig Walker for sharing your insights on #OfficeBasedLabs during the second wave of #COVID19. I found the video super insightful. What are your thoughts on the value of an #OBL during a pandemic? #outpatient 👇 https://t.co/pkhsW6fDAP

[Mike Ferguson @geaux1967]

A looming physician shortage opens the opportunity for surgeons to seek systems that are efficient and streamlined. "This is a time for #ASC to thrive." Check out @TKremchekMD's interview with @BeckersASC. https://t.co/o0pn6WR4dJ

An insightful medical advisory board meeting during #OEIS2021. I had a great time with this group that traded an abundance of information. See you all soon!

[Mike Ferguson @geaux1967]

Thank you @OEISociety for the great sessions during the conference. It's always insightful to hear honest first-hand experiences of #OBL physicians/owners. What was your biggest takeaway from #OEIS2021 last week?

The fund also includes $17 billion for physician groups and other #healthcare providers that reported revenue losses during #COVID19. You can apply for your #OBL/ #ASC starting Sept. 29. 👇

Time is running out to contact your member of Congress on the proposed CMS budget cuts before the Sept. 13th deadline. These cuts are a threat to the specialty care services #OfficeBasedLabs provide to their communities. https://t.co/kLgYq33S8t

[Mike Ferguson @geaux1967]

Congratulations to doctors Chris LeSar and Williams Harris. Always great to see @Philipshealth solutions deliver a better patient experience to our communities in #OfficeBasedLabs. #CLIFighters

[Vascular Institute @VIChattanooga]

The NEW Phoenix 1.5BTK & Apex 2.4 successfully completed 5 of the first cases in the US w/ VIC doctors Chris LeSar & William Harris, along with Philips Engineer Josue, Will Follensbee, Rep and the VIC OBL team. A great advance for better patient care. #VIC #CLIFighters #Philips

[Mike Ferguson @geaux1967]

Another great #OfficeBasedLab start-up story. Amazing to see their journey in Texas + the role @PhilipsHealth played to keep #healthcare solutions affordable and accessible for the physicians and their community. Congratulations on the success Dr. Brookshire and Mr. Mata. 🥳

[Lindsay Pack @LindsayKPack]

Great insights from Dr. Brookshire and Miguel Mata on their experiences of launching an #OBL in Texas in just 6⃣ months. Great to see @PhilipsHealth helping facilities like theirs help provide affordable and convenient #healthcare in their community. https://t.co/WmUp3pSPfT

[Mike Ferguson @geaux1967]

Had a great time last week representing @PhilipsHealth in Orlando at the @AMPSymposium. Insightful #CLIFighters discussions and as always capped off with a great leader dinner. Looking forward to seeing everyone again soon. @hhp16 @CraigMWalkerMD @LaiqRaja @CliLorie

[Mike Ferguson @geaux1967]

In just a few years, both Dr. Dipple and Dr. Comstock saw their #OBLs thrive and grow. It's been an absolute pleasure to see their facilities serve communities with @PhilipsHealth solutions. The future of the #ASC/#OBL industry is bright. 🤩 https://t.co/ZBoHZcV505

[Mike Ferguson @geaux1967]

The #healthcare system accounts for 4% of global CO2 emissions. Extending the life cycle of solutions and developing products that fit with new business models (such as #ASCs), @PhilipsHealth aims to drive regenerative thinking, design and innovation. https://t.co/CnD7crJMCS

[Mike Ferguson @geaux1967]

Across the U.S., natural disasters are becoming a more frequent occurrence in our lives. Great insights from Dr. Fastabend how their #OBL here in Louisiana (the CCSWLA) responded to Hurricane Laura and how other #OBLs can be prepared. https://t.co/GkwAU4mis4

[Mike Ferguson @geaux1967]

Great to hear from these 8 #ASC leaders on their advice to achieve success in 2021. With increased caseloads in these facilities, a common theme is being prepared, staffing the right team, and finding the right balance to reduce burnout. (via: @BeckersASC) https://t.co/qKDrtB5ZZH

[Mike Ferguson @geaux1967]

Considering starting an #OBL or #ASC? I had a great time collaborating with @JimGMelton on the advantages they bring and why a hybrid model should be considered for any new #OfficeBasedLab owner. 👇https://t.co/Yg0PeZSnzM

[Mike Ferguson @geaux1967]

Great to see how stakeholders can benefit when #ASCs/ #OBLs work with hospitals. Patients benefit from the lower cost of outpatient facilities. OBLs gain the needed support to treat complicated cases. Hospitals benefit from the added value of a #OBL. A win-win for all.

[Lindsay Pack @LindsayKPack]

When an #OBL/ #ASC works with a hospital, patients can benefit from continuity of care, reduced costs, and optimal outcomes. Great piece from @LaiqRaja and David Konur sharing how outpatient facilities and hospitals complement each other. https://t.co/oPgHdXEgw5

[Mike Ferguson @geaux1967]

Had a fabulous time during the @PhilipsHealth leadership dinner at #NCVH2021. The event has been full of valuable insights and conversations with fantastic colleagues. Thank you @NCVHonline and @CraigMWalkerMD for the opportunity to present on #OBLs. Looking forward to next year!
