Surgical Care Affiliates, Llc
Surgical Care Affiliates, LLC is a leading national operator of outpatient surgery centers with a network of 256 locations in 32 states. Founded in 1982 as American Surgicenters, the company was initially established to develop physician-owned ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs). The concept quickly gained traction and after an initial public offering in 1995, the company transitioned its name to Surgical Care Affiliates, Inc. Under this new structure, SCA began adding partnerships with health systems, developing joint ventures followed by outright acquisitions. In 2013 SCA was acquired by Optum Ventures and merged into UnitedHealth Group (NYSE: UNH). Following the merger, SCA became one of the largest operators of ASCs in the country as they continued to acquire and grow their network. Today SCA is dedicated to delivering high quality patient care utilizing evidence-based protocols while providing cost efficiencies compared to hospital based care.
