ANKENY MEDICAL PARK SURGERY CENTER

What ANKENY MEDICAL PARK SURGERY CENTER does

Ankeny Medical Park Surgery Center (AMPSC) is an ambulatory surgery center (ASC) located at 3625 N. Ankeny Blvd., Suite J, Ankeny, Iowa, operating Monday through Friday from 6:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. It is organized as a tripartite joint venture among UnityPoint Health – Des Moines (a regional health system), Des Moines Orthopaedic Surgeons, P.C. (DMOS), and Iowa Digestive Disease Center (IDDC), with each partner contributing clinical and operational resources under a unified governance model. The facility holds AAAHC accreditation and Medicare certification, placing it within the regulated tier of ambulatory care required for outpatient reimbursement.

AMPSC's clinical offering is built around three core service lines: total joint replacement surgery for shoulder, hip, and knee performed on a same-day outpatient basis by DMOS-affiliated surgeons; general outpatient surgical procedures; and endoscopy/GI procedures performed by IDDC specialists. The center wraps these around pre-procedure preparation (pre-registration, medical history, financial counseling) and post-procedure recovery support (pain management, DVT prevention education, follow-up scheduling). On-site hospital services are available as a safety net for unexpected intra-procedural complications. The center employs no proprietary technology platform and operates a single physical location within the North Ankeny medical park campus adjacent to a DMOS clinic.

Revenue is generated primarily through facility fees charged per procedure, with insurance paperwork filed on behalf of patients and anesthesia/physician professional fees billed separately by the respective providers. Patient acquisition is essentially referral-driven: physicians from DMOS, IDDC, and UnityPoint-affiliated practices schedule their surgical and endoscopy cases directly at AMPSC; no consumer-facing marketing motion is present. For uninsured or out-of-network patients the center accepts direct payment via cash, check, major credit cards, the PatientNotebook online payment portal, and CareCredit financing, with financial assistance available for qualifying patients.
