Duly Health and Care and Surgery Partners Announce Partnership for Outpatient Ambulatory Surgery Centers

DOWN­ERS GROVE, Ill. — Duly Health and Care today announces a long-term, strate­gic part­ner­ship with Surgery Part­ners (SGRY) on our out­pa­tient Ambu­la­to­ry Surgery Cen­ters in Lom­bard, IL and West­mont, IL. The Sur­gi­cal Cen­ter of Duly Health and Care in Lom­bard is one of the largest and busiest mul­ti-spe­cial­ty ASCs in the state of Illi­nois, serv­ing more than 20,000 patients of all ages annu­al­ly. The Duly Surgery Cen­ter of West­mont serves as Duly’s best-in-class Mus­cu­loskele­tal focused surgery center. 

Through our part­ner­ship, Surgery Part­ners will lead oper­a­tions for these two facil­i­ties and con­tin­ue to uphold the high qual­i­ty of care stan­dards that Duly is known for deliv­er­ing to its patients and the com­mu­ni­ties it serves. ​“Our val­ued patients and the physi­cians and care teams that serve them are crit­i­cal to our con­tin­ued suc­cess as an orga­ni­za­tion. We made this deci­sion fol­low­ing great dis­cern­ment and are thrilled to work with Surgery Part­ners, the lead­ing inde­pen­dent oper­a­tor of sur­gi­cal facil­i­ties. They are an ide­al part­ner for our inde­pen­dent, physi­cian-led mod­el,” stat­ed Dan Green­leaf, Chief Exec­u­tive Offi­cer, Duly Health and Care. 

“Effi­cient and well-man­aged out­pa­tient ASCs are at the core of who we are as a physi­cian-led group. Receiv­ing care in the most appro­pri­ate set­ting will be even more crit­i­cal for patients as a tool to help man­age health­care costs, for them­selves and the health­care sys­tem,” added Paul Mer­rick, MD, Chief Physi­cian Exec­u­tive at Duly Health and Care. 

“We are thrilled to wel­come two of Duly’s high­ly rat­ed facil­i­ties to our nation­al port­fo­lio of lead­ing surgery cen­ters,” said Eric Evans, Chief Exec­u­tive Offi­cer of Surgery Part­ners. ​“Duly exem­pli­fies the qual­i­ties we seek in a physi­cian group part­ner­ship— in-depth mar­ket exper­tise and a supe­ri­or patient expe­ri­ence. Togeth­er, we share a com­mit­ment to advanc­ing patient care and qual­i­ty, and we look for­ward to con­tin­ued growth and suc­cess in our partnership.”

We look for­ward to build­ing on this strate­gic part­ner­ship with Surgery Part­ners to fur­ther expand across our broad­er geo­gra­phies. This part­ner­ship reflects a shared com­mit­ment to advanc­ing patient care, oper­a­tional excel­lence, and effi­cient, val­ue-dri­ven health­care solu­tions in each com­mu­ni­ty we serve, ensur­ing that patients ben­e­fit from the high­est qual­i­ty care in set­tings that best meet their needs. Togeth­er, Duly Health and Care and Surgery Part­ners are well-posi­tioned for long-term growth as we con­tin­ue to inno­vate and ele­vate patient care stan­dards region­al­ly and nationally.
