What is driving the Popularity of Ambulatory Surgery Market in India?

Ambulatory surgery, which refers to a surgical procedure that allows patients to return home on the same day of the surgery, is gaining significant popularity across India. The rapid technological advancements in the Indian healthcare sector facilitates almost 60% of all surgeries to be performed at ambulatory surgical centre (ASC). Ambulatory care services are also provided at various healthcare facilities like dialysis clinics, hospital outpatient departments, and outpatient clinics, among others.

One of the most defining factors contributing to the unprecedented growth of the ambulatory surgery market in India is the improved outcomes on offer. Ambulatory surgeries takes lesser time, recovery is faster and there is 50% lesser chance of developing an infection when surgeries are performed in an ASC setting. Healthcare research studies on ankle fracture surgeries found that patients who underwent the surgery in an ASC had less chances of developing urinary tract infections, pneumonia and blood clots, and were less likely to need blood transfusions than those who received the surgery in a hospital setting. Further research showed that the time a patient spent in an ASC is almost 26% lower than in a hospital outpatient for the same surgery. Additionally, ASC patients were less likely to visit the hospital in the week following the surgery.

Ambulatory surgeries are also a cost-effective option when compared to traditional surgeries. Ambulatory surgical centers can result in 45-60% lower costs when compared to hospitals, and offers significant savings to patients, insurers as well as taxpayers. Importantly, these cost savings typically come without compromising on the quality of the healthcare delivery. The considerably lower price of ASCs is simply due to the lean infrastructure and increased efficiency. The operational efficiency of ASCs is also down to the fact that they are not compelled to operate 24/7 and perform surgeries on an emergency basis. As a result, ASCs are highly specialized and agile.
