Delivering the highest quality healthcare services to patients in need continues to be the major objective of healthcare services organizations; however, ensuring the financial stability and growth of these organizations are becoming increasing important as margins continue to decrease. The real estate needs of such organizations are distinctive, and require a keen focus on the particular services offered, specific patient needs, payor mix, and more in order to accurately advise on effective strategies. Imaging centers, emergency care centers, group doctors’ offices, out-patient surgical centers, and other such facilities all require a defined approach to acquiring real estate that will best accomplish the objectives of both investors and doctors, as well as, the needs of their patients.
As a real estate agent I specialize in the needs of physicians and healthcare facilities because I know first hand the challenges which offices face in balancing their desire to serve their patients with the best medical treatment available with desire to maintain as a profitable business. As an office manager I realized the major impact office space has not only on the bottom line, being the largest expense incurred, but also on the perspective the patient had of the doctor. Like your home, your office speaks volumes to the patient as to your style and consideration of their needs.
I work collectively with my clients to review the importance of the following factors to ensure the professional and financial feasibility of their office space.
• Patient demographics
• Patient retention
• Pricing analysis
• Payor mix
• ROI and operating capital requirements
• Patient access
• Licensure and certification
• Organizational and hospital affiliations
• Image
• Doctor recruitment and retention
• Changes in government and insurance industry policies and procedures, and more.
