Blue Chip Surgical Center Partners

What Blue Chip Surgical Center Partners does

Blue Chip Surgical Center Partners LLC is a Cincinnati-based, privately-held for-profit company founded in 2004 that develops, manages, and optimizes ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs). The firm's stated business is to partner with physicians and health systems to operate outpatient surgical facilities, a model in which management companies typically earn revenue through management fees, administrative services contracts, and minority equity stakes in the centers they operate. The company operates with a small headcount of 11-50 employees based in Cincinnati, Ohio.

The company has a minimal public footprint. Its web presence (bluechipsurgical.com) is currently a generic WordPress placeholder template with no substantive company-specific content — the site's categories include "Outdoors," "E-commerce," "Finance," "Health," "Marketing," "Online Games," "Pet Care," "Property," "Technology," and "Travel," none of which relate to ASC management, and the homepage displays only WordPress boilerplate about page builder plugins. The only dated capital event on record is a 2009 funding round of approximately $1.8 million from undisclosed investors. Leadership consists of a small executive team — Jay Rom (President), Kathleen Whitlow (COO), Chris Bishop (Senior VP), Gina Dolsen (VP of Operations), and Tom Harrison (VP). No customers, partnerships, products, technology assets, certifications, or recent operational milestones are documented in the available sources, materially limiting due-diligence visibility.
