Dublin Surgery Center

What Dublin Surgery Center does

Dublin Surgery Center is a physician-owned outpatient ambulatory surgery center (ASC) located at 5005 Parkcenter Avenue, Dublin, Ohio, opened in November 2003. The center provides same-day surgical care across more than fourteen medical specialties - including gastroenterology, general surgery, gynecology, neurosurgery, ophthalmology, orthopedic and orthopedic spine surgery, otolaryngology, pain management, plastic surgery, podiatry, proctology, urology, and robotic surgery delivered via the Intuitive DaVinci Surgical System - to patients referred by independent physicians as well as self-referred patients from Dublin and the broader Columbus communities. The facility is accredited by The Joint Commission, maintains a COVID-19-free surgical environment, and has been recognized on Newsweek's America's Best Ambulatory Surgery Centers list for six consecutive years (2021-2026), peaking at #1 in Ohio in 2024. The center is part of the SCA Health network of 200+ surgical facilities nationwide, and operates Monday through Friday from 6:00 AM to 4:00 PM.

Revenue is generated via facility fees charged for use of the surgical center, billed directly to primary and secondary insurance carriers, with co-pays and deductibles collected on the day of surgery and self-pay balances collected in advance. Surgeon, anesthesiologist, laboratory, and pathology fees are billed separately by the respective providers, so the center participates only in the facility-fee layer of the surgical value chain. Patients can pre-register online through One Medical Passport and pay balances through Patient Notebook or CareCredit.

Customer acquisition is referral-led: independent physicians across the listed specialties route patients to the center, and the center uses its Newsweek rankings, Joint Commission accreditation, and the SCA Health affiliation as top-of-funnel trust signals. Pricing is positioned structurally below hospital outpatient departments - procedures cost patients approximately 45% less than the equivalent hospital procedure, which the center markets to physicians, payers, and self-paying patients as the primary economic differentiator.

Direct peers

• United Surgical Partners International (USPI): USPI, a Tenet Healthcare subsidiary, operates the largest network of ambulatory surgery centers and surgical hospitals in the U.S., with deep multi-specialty and physician-partnership orientation. USPI competes head-to-head with SCA Health–affiliated centers like Dublin for physician partners, payer contracts, and patient referrals in the same metropolitan markets.
• Surgery Partners: Surgery Partners is one of the largest short-stay surgical facility operators in the U.S., running a network of multi-specialty ASCs across 30+ states. It is the closest publicly traded analog to Dublin's multi-specialty, physician-partner ASC model, with revenue per facility and specialty breadth directly comparable.
• Regent Surgical Health: Regent Surgical Health is a privately held ASC management and development company that partners with physicians to operate multi-specialty outpatient surgery centers. It is a comparable operator archetype to SCA Health, with similar physician-partnership structures and metropolitan-market focus.
• SCA Health: SCA Health is Dublin Surgery Center's direct parent and operator, running 200+ surgical facilities nationwide. As the parent, SCA Health dictates clinical quality systems, payer strategy, and the network referral dynamics that effectively determine Dublin's competitive set; it is both parent and the most direct operational peer.
• Practice Partners in Healthcare: Practice Partners in Healthcare provides management, development, and administrative services to physician-owned ASCs and surgical hospitals across the U.S. It directly competes with SCA Health for management contracts at new and existing ASC facilities, making it a relevant operational peer to Dublin's parent relationship.

Broad incumbents

• HCA Healthcare: HCA Healthcare is one of the largest U.S. for-profit hospital operators and has been aggressively expanding its ASC footprint through partnerships and acquisitions. While HCA's core business is inpatient care, its outpatient and ASC strategy directly overlaps with Dublin's competitive landscape in major metropolitan markets like Columbus.
• Ardent Health Partners: Ardent Health Partners operates hospitals and ambulatory care services across multiple states, with a growing ASC strategy. Its mix of acute care hospitals and outpatient facilities creates similar referral dynamics and competitive overlap to Dublin's positioning in the Columbus metro.
• Tenet Healthcare: Tenet owns USPI, the largest ASC platform in the U.S., in addition to its acute care hospitals. Tenet's ambulatory strategy directly competes with Dublin for physician partners and patients, while its hospital footprint represents the referent alternative that Dublin's cost story is built against.
