Based on tremendous competition for healthcare design projects, most approach them by creating architectural objects, rather than addressing the underlying financial elements that are expected to both develop and sustain its operation. Well-asked and answered questions offer teams competitive advantages as they strategize their value propositions.  

This webinar will review key questions related to evaluating capital decisions, external factors, key performance indicators and ways to creatively finance projects. Participants will have the opportunity to gain insight into the minds of healthcare executives and what drives their decisions. (This program is 6th in a 6-part series and can be viewed individually or as part of the series.) 
 


 

Learning Objectives

  • Learn how financiers evaluate capital decisions for projects.
  • Identify external factors related to funding healthcare projects.
  • Recognize key performance indicators that healthcare executives use to evaluate a project’s viability.
  • Clarify various approaches to finance projects by combining assets and debt.
