West Michigan Surgery Center (WMSC) takes top honors in Newsweek Magazine’s “America’s Best Ambulatory Surgery Centers 2021.” Newsweek partnered with respected global research firm Statista to analyze more than 4,300 Ambulatory Surgery Centers in 25 states. The report ranked Big Rapids’ based West Michigan Surgery Center among the top 7 Ambulatory Surgery Centers in the state. The Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs currently lists 150 Ambulatory Surgery Centers in its provider directory.
Statista based its results on a few parameters, including: A reputation score and key performance indicators. The reputation score was based on the quality of care, performance data, and peer recommendations. The key performance indicators took into account the quality of treatment and medical conditions. Experts and survey participants also reviewed how well facilities were responding to the threat of COVID-19. All data was collected by Newsweek and Statista from July to September 2020. ASC participants were not able to recommend their business in the survey.
