Our Key Perspectives
Growth
To survive, health systems will need to demonstrate consistent growth, particularly in the ambulatory setting (in both fee-for-service and value-based environments) to overcome increasing costs and complexities of operations and meet patient expectations.
Asset Management
There is likely no health system in the US today that would configure its asset portfolio from scratch the same way it is configured today given the changing nature of healthcare delivery including patient preferences, reimbursement models and science and technology driving more care to the outpatient setting.
Strategy
Real estate strategy is one of the most overlooked, untapped potentials to improve health system performance and financials, as real estate is the chassis upon which operations, labor, supplies and other costs are layered.
