The center, located in Jefferson, N.C., features five new exam rooms, a waiting room with electronic medical records and a provider’s office. Services include cardiology consultations, EKG, heart monitors, follow-up appointments and device management, and diagnostic services.

Previously, local residents had to travel out of the mountains for these services. 

“We are so excited to be able to serve the patient population of this community,” said new Ashe cardiologist William Scarpa Jr., MD.

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.
