The health care industry is experiencing a barrage of external, as well as internal competing forces for scarce resources. Facilitated by rapidly changing technology and physician entrepreneurial incentives, traditional health care services will continue to be offered independent of hospitals. This study, albeit limited in scope, has attempted to provide insight into the rampant growth of the freestanding ambulatory surgery centers throughout the state of Florida and its effects on full service hospitals. Three major concerns have been conceptualized in relation to this phenomenon. First, has the proliferation of Florida's investor-owned ASCs had a significant effect on market concentration? Secondly, is a patient's insurance status a factor in where they receive services? And finally, are musculoskeletal procedures of varying complexity (resource consumption) performed in one setting more than the other? The significance of this study is to highlight the current medical arms race in ambulatory care and demonstrate how unregulated ASC development threatens the cornerstone of the American health care system: the full-service hospital.
