EP Lab Digest, a media outlet for electrophysiology (EP) professionals, has published a Q&A with Wilber Su, MD, FACC, FHRS, director of heart rhythm services at Banner-University Medical Center and professor of medicine at the University of Arizona, that discusses a panel he is moderating at the upcoming Heart Rhythm 2026 conference called “Business of EP I: To ASC or Not to ASC: The Great Debate in the Business of Electrophysiology.”
In the Q&A, he discusses several factors driving growing alignment between ASCs and electrophysiology procedures. Dr. Su, currently involved in a physician co-owned, academic ASC model with six electrophysiologists and three interventionalists, examines the need to balance patient safety, clinical outcomes and economic factors when providing these services at ASCs, as well as managing physician comfort and preparation for complications in a freestanding setting.
