description Economic concerns have also driven surgical care towards the ambulatory environment as facility fees are significantly lower in the ambulatory/outpatient environment. [...]patients and insurers have a financial stake in where healthcare is delivered.2 The reduction in the need for in-hospital surgical care varies across institutions. Offsetting this is the potential for higher prices resulting from greater market power. [...]it is not surprising that studies evaluating the cost savings after consolidation are mixed. The association within hub hospitals of these two findings (case mix index and hospital volume as a surrogate for size) tend to validate the authors’ construct of the hub and spoke model of surgical care delivery.1 Future studies will need a more granular look at healthcare system structural and functional characteristics thus allowing an assessment of care delivery and patient outcomes.
