Valence Health- Dispelling the Myth that Size Makes Might for Value-Based Pay...Rachel Brand, MS
1) While large healthcare systems are often seen as best positioned for value-based payments, community hospitals and middle market providers may have distinct advantages. Control over the care continuum and relationships with providers, not size or ownership, are what really enable success with value-based models.
2) A provider needs to influence at least 30% of physicians' patient panels to effectively change behaviors. They also need a sufficient population of patients and lives to attract payors to risk-based contracts and start their own health plans.
3) Community hospitals tend to have a cost advantage over academic medical centers and may be better able to meet quality goals in primary care-focused risk contracts given their ties to local providers. With committed leadership
The healthcare industry is always changing, and one noteworthy trend that has drawn notice is the rise of Freestanding Emergency Rooms (FSERs). These facilities, which are essential to the provision of timely emergency treatment, have come to be discussed often in relation to healthcare. Healthcare professionals and patients should both understand FSERs since they give an alternative to typical hospital-based emergency treatment.

Healthcare real estate optimization involves assessing opportunities within a healthcare system's real estate portfolio to generate cost savings and create value. This includes analyzing a healthcare system's portfolio inventory, utilization, leasing strategies, capital strategies, development strategies, and facilities management effectiveness. Conducting these assessments requires collecting and analyzing appropriate real estate data to make strategic portfolio decisions that contain costs and increase value. Common opportunities identified include utilizing vacant owned space to reduce leasing costs, negotiating lower lease rates, improving operating efficiencies, and pursuing capital strategies such as monetization or credit tenant lease financing.
The document discusses the changing landscape of healthcare delivery through micro-hospitals, freestanding emergency centers, and bedless hospitals. Micro-hospitals are small acute care facilities that focus on low-acuity patients while freestanding emergency centers provide emergency care without being attached to a hospital. Bedless hospitals have operating rooms and emergency capabilities but no overnight beds, allowing for lower-cost same-day procedures. While these models improve access, there are also concerns about reducing costs too much and rushing patients out of care prematurely.
The document discusses what makes a hospital the best. It outlines several key characteristics including coordinated care throughout treatment, comprehensive services under one roof, embracing new technologies, efficient elimination of unnecessary processes, patient-centered priority, and transparent pricing. Overall, the best hospitals deliver excellent medical care, efficient administration, coordinated departments, and embrace technology to provide patients a great experience.

The document provides guidance on getting started with hospital design in India. It discusses the importance of management consulting to conduct a market survey of the healthcare needs in the area through household, doctor, and institutional surveys. The surveys analyze disease profiles, healthcare choices, opinions on deficiencies, and critical success factors. The data is used to determine the appropriate facility mix, size, and services for the proposed hospital project.
This article discusses trends in health care and wellness design. Regarding health care trends, the emphasis is shifting from acute to preventative care due to policies like the Affordable Care Act. This will increase demand for primary care and outpatient facilities over hospitals. Wellness design aims to support these trends by integrating services and making care more accessible. In the future, there will be more collaboration between practices and specialties located together, as well as leasing of clinic space instead of purchasing. Both private practices and hospitals are consolidating to cut costs and improve coordination of care through technologies like electronic medical records. Overall, facilities must be adaptable, efficient and emphasize prevention to succeed in the changing health care environment.

This document provides information about a healthcare supply chain conference taking place in Dubai in April 2014. The two-day conference will bring together healthcare regulators, providers, distributors, and manufacturers to discuss strategies for developing robust and strategic healthcare supply chains.
The conference will feature keynote speeches from leaders in the UAE Ministry of Health and hospital supply chain management. Participants can attend panels on designing resilient supply chain networks, regulatory developments, and managing relationships with suppliers and internal stakeholders. Interactive sessions will address topics like demand planning, eliminating inefficiencies, and developing effective inventory management. The goal is to help attendees implement transformational supply chain models that improve patient outcomes and care.
This document discusses the increasing importance of nonacute care to healthcare organizations' success. It notes that what happens outside the hospital, including primary care, home health, and long-term care, will determine hospitals' and health systems' future. It provides examples of how some organizations are investing in and partnering with nonacute care providers to coordinate care across settings and control costs.
The document discusses the marketing mix of hospital services. It describes the key elements of the marketing mix - product, price, place, promotion, people, and process. For the product element, it outlines the core, expected, and augmented levels of services hospitals provide. It then discusses factors considered for pricing, promotion strategies, location decisions, importance of staff, and the process of receiving treatment from admission to discharge.
An outpatient pharmacy owned by a hospital can improve patient care transitions, establish new revenue streams, and reduce costs. It extends the hospital's reach by ensuring patients can fill prescriptions after discharge. This bridges gaps in care by helping patients understand and adhere to medication regimens. An outpatient pharmacy also generates revenue from community members and lowers employee prescription benefit costs. Overall, it supports high-quality, cost-effective care across healthcare settings.
The document discusses how convenient care clinics are improving healthcare access, affordability, and quality. It notes that millions of Americans lack access to primary care due to lack of insurance or a regular doctor. Convenient care clinics are filling this gap by providing affordable and high-quality care for common medical issues outside of emergency rooms. The number of these clinics has grown significantly in recent years and research shows they can reduce costs while meeting quality standards. The document argues convenient care clinics will continue growing and partnering with other providers to help address healthcare challenges under the Affordable Care Act.

1. BENEFITS OF RETAIL SETTINGS FOR MEDICAL OFFICE SPACE
More frequently than ever, former retail spaces, including big box grocery stores, department stores, malls, and other large
blocks of space, are being retrofitted and repurposed to accommodate health systems and physician practices. There are
numerous elements contributing to this convergence of retail and healthcare real estate.
First, it’s helpful to understand that most metropolitan areas are experiencing very low vacancy rates in traditional Medical
Office Buildings (“MOB’s”). Continued consolidation among health systems and physician practices, and their need to
provide more outpatient services to accommodate the increasing number of insured people and aging populations, is putting
pressure on existing MOB’s to be able to accommodate this growth. Large blocks of space in existing MOB’s are becoming
more difficult to find, and many of the existing MOB’s that do have sizeable space have become functionally obsolete in
today’s healthcare environment. Layer on top of that, the continual rise in construction costs and lack of affordable land in
the desired areas, and it makes the cost of developing new MOB’s very expensive in most cases.
Many factors make converting former retail spaces to medical office an attractive option for commercial property owners.
• Typically, retail centers and shopping malls are located on or near main corridors with high traffic counts, easy access
and great visibility.
• Retail centers provide an abundance of parking, unlike general office buildings that typically require less parking per
square foot.
• Signageandbrandingopportunitiesarefavorableinretailcenters,whichisbecomingincreasinglyimportanttohealthcare
providers as they continue to fight for market share.
• Retail centers create high foot traffic from shopping center patrons and regular patient commutes.
• Retail centers are often more centrally located to patrons than traditional hospitals settings.
• Repurposing non-medical facilities to healthcare uses generally have shorter delivery times than new construction and
can accelerate a healthcare provider’s speed to market.
• Perhaps most importantly, due to record high construction costs, shuttered big box retail spaces generally have lease
rates that are lower than what could otherwise be offered in a newly constructed MOB.
Healthcare providers are also interested in smaller footprints to fulfill their population health management strategies while
capturing market share. Healthcare providers are compelled to be in more retail locations in order to meet consumers’
demand for convenience. Converting former bank branches, car dealerships, auto care centers, mattress stores and other
smaller retail facilities allows healthcare providers to expand their urgent care, primary care, wellness and other ambulatory
services throughout their markets.
Flagship Healthcare Properties has been selected to represent the Landlord for a potential retail to medical conversion at
the Friendly Center, an upscale lifestyle center in Greensboro, NC. This property will appeal to many medical users offering
spaces from 1,500 square feet up to 26,000 square feet. Close to major hospitals, medical practices universities, medical
tenants will benefit from the excellent access, visibility and convenience that a retail center provides.
