Episode #92: Addressing Anesthesia Challenges in GI Practices | Fred Rosenberg | Jay Kreger | CRH Medical
Tuesday, 9 June, 2026

Dr. Fred Rosenberg interviews Jay Kreger, chief executive officer of CRH Medical, a GI solutions company that provides anesthesia services to gastroenterology practices at more than 150 ambulatory surgery centers in 18 states, about how independent practices can keep anesthesia care reliable and accessible for patients. Independent GI practices depend on anesthesia services for many of the procedures they perform, but face increasing difficulty maintaining anesthesia coverage, from competition with hospitals and health systems to reimbursement cuts from insurance companies. Partnering with a company that provides anesthesia and other services is one way practices can address these challenges and stay focused on patient care. Join Fred and Jay as they discuss what options exist for practices that want to partner with an anesthesia services company, and the steps independent practices can take to keep dependable anesthesia care in place for their communities. Produced by Andrew Sousa and Hayden Margolis for Steadfast Collaborative, LLC Mixed and mastered by Hayden Margolis Gastro Broadcast, episode 92, presented by TissueCypher from Castle Biosciences
