What Lexington Surgery Center does

Lexington Surgery Center is a physician-owned, freestanding multi-specialty ambulatory surgery center (ASC) founded in 1992 and located at 2115 Harrodsburg Road in Lexington, Kentucky. It provides same-day outpatient surgical care to adults and children across 15+ specialties, including orthopedic surgery, gastroenterology, ophthalmology, ENT, pain management, podiatry, plastic surgery, hand surgery, and general surgery. The center is accredited by the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC) and designated as a Blue Distinction Center for Orthopedic/Spine Surgery by Blue Cross Blue Shield, and it markets procedures at approximately 45% lower cost than equivalent hospital-based care.

The center operates as part of the SCA Health network, a national surgical solutions provider with more than 200 facilities across the United States, which provides operational support, payor contracting leverage, and brand infrastructure. It runs on a physician referral-led go-to-market model, with more than 200 affiliated physicians feeding procedure volume, and supports patient intake through the One Medical Passport pre-registration platform. Anesthesia services are delivered through Commonwealth Anesthesia, including ultrasound-guided nerve blocks and regional anesthesia for orthopedic and laparoscopic procedures. Post-operative pain management uses validated Visual Analog and Faces pain scales, with oral, intravenous, and nerve-block therapies.

Revenue is generated through surgical procedure fees billed to commercial insurers, Medicare, Medicaid, Railroad Medicare, and self-pay/cosmetic patients, with full prepayment required for elective and cosmetic procedures and CareCredit financing available. Online cost estimation is provided via Clariti Health, and online bill payment is handled through Patientco. The company is private, holds no disclosed funding rounds, and is owned by its affiliated physicians under the SCA Health strategic umbrella.
