UnaSource Surgery Center

What UnaSource Surgery Center does

UnaSource Surgery Center is a multi-specialty outpatient ambulatory surgery center (ASC) located at 4550 Investment Drive, Suite 100, Troy, Michigan, that has been operating since 2004 (founded 2002) and treats approximately 7,000 patients per year across adult and pediatric populations. The facility comprises 5 operating rooms and 18 private patient care suites, with a medical staff of over 50-60 board-certified or board-eligible surgeons spanning 7 specialties: orthopedic surgery, general surgery, otolaryngology, ophthalmology, plastic/reconstructive surgery, podiatry, and urology. Signature service lines are outpatient joint replacement (hip, knee, shoulder, ankle), spine surgery, sports medicine, and pediatric surgeries, with the center being one of only two ASCs in Michigan to hold AAAHC Advanced Orthopaedic Certification in total joint and complex spine surgery as of May 2026.

The technology and clinical programs platform centers on minimally invasive procedures, the proprietary Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol, narcotic-free pain management (AmbIT and ON-Q pain pumps, HF10 spinal stimulator from Nevro), and robotic-assisted surgical systems (TMINI from Think Surgical and ROSA from Zimmer Biomet). Operational technology is supported by a pre-surgical health assessment portal (registerforsurgery.com) and patient education video infrastructure. The center participates in two BCBSM-sponsored statewide quality collaboratives - MARCQI for arthroplasty and MSSIC for spine surgery - that function as outcome-data flywheels and quality-reporting infrastructure.

UnaSource operates a fee-for-service, insurance-billed business model: facility fees are billed to insurance carriers for procedures performed, with patient deductibles over $1,000 collected prior to surgery, co-pays collected on the day of service, and remaining balances billed after adjudication. Distribution is direct-to-patient via physician referrals (the 50+ affiliated surgeons), self-referrals through online appointment requests, and a published phone intake line (248-265-4600). The center runs an exclusively single-site, regional-southeast-Michigan footprint and is privately held with no disclosed institutional or PE ownership. Customer concentration is highly diversified at the patient level (consumer healthcare) but the revenue base is concentrated in Michigan and leans heavily on payer relationships and the affiliated surgeon roster.
