The healthcare industry spends $4.1-trillion annually – almost 20% of the U.S. gross domestic product. Hospitals represent $1.2-trillion of that cost, and healthcare construction accumulates to hundreds of $-billions annually. While architects understand discrete elements of the overall costs associated with developing healthcare projects, they operate outside of the broader healthcare finance space.

This webinar will explore the dynamic external forces that shape the internal healthcare finance discussions and help attendees gain client’s perspectives related to their abilities to fund architectural projects. (This program is the 5th in a 6-part series, and can be viewed individually or as part of the series.)
 


 

Learning Objectives

  • Consider the myriad points of financial influence beyond simply using healthcare rate demand to shape places of care.
  • Increase alertness about the current healthcare financial status and immediate forecasts.
  • Explore the regulatory implications of healthcare finance as it affects designing for health.
  • Discover the current market pressures related to healthcare operations and other drivers of healthcare architecture.
