Healthcare Real Estate Strategy & Solutions
Improving population health and the patient experience
With today’s healthcare pressures, a proper real estate model aligns investment with time, brand, and revenue opportunities. Yesterday’s strategic master planning focused on creating space; today it’s about aligning strategic opportunity with realistic capital parameters and on-target executing. Overbuild and you have expensive underutilized assets- that seldom meet the financial targets by which they were prioritized- underbuild and you leave revenue on the table. Successful healthcare organizations address changing market forces and mitigate the risk inherent to all market strategies, and we can help.
At Ankura we help clients locate the right-sized services in the right place so that every square foot yields its highest value. We deploy advanced data analytics to strategy, business planning, facilities metrics, and operability, to reveal new insights about our clients' competitors and quantify the space that drives fiscally viable utilization. We also help our clients formulate innovative partnership models and financing solutions to conserve working capital.
