ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
A survey was conducted at the 2023 Annual Meeting of the American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons (AAHKS) to assess practice management strategies among current AAHKS members.METHODS:
Members of AAHKS used an app to answer both multiple-choice and "yes or no" questions related to a variety of issues related to their practices.RESULTS:
The number of AAHKS members in private practice (37%) continues to decline, and 4% are now in private equity-employed practices. Fee for service (30%) and relative value units (30%) are the major forms of compensation. The number of AAHKS members that perform total joint arthroplasties at ambulatory surgery centers continues to increase, and supply chain issues (91%) remain a problem. There has been a decrease in surgeon participation in bundled payment programs and gainsharing arrangements with hospitals.CONCLUSIONS:
This member's survey provides valuable information regarding practice patterns. The shift to outpatient surgery has continued. Future surveys will be performed to monitor changes in practice patterns over time.Palavras-chave
