Proposition

 

Our Endoscopy Center is one of the most cost-effective facilities in the region. Independent studies have demonstrated that endoscopic procedures performed in community ambulatory surgery centers, like Spokane Digestive, are less than one-half the cost of the same procedure performed in a hospital outpatient department.¹

 

Our office is owned and operated by a Board composed of Spokane Digestive Disease Center physicians. This unique management and provider structure allows us to provide patients with affordable care. Our commitment to your care includes a dedication to providing you with cost effective treatment. Please reference the chart on the right hand side of the page for a comparative analysis of treatment at a Community-Based ASC versus the cost of hospital outpatient care.
