Analyses that support facility planning, including a forecast of 10-year demand

Effective facility planning requires a detailed understanding of supply and demand.

For decades, health economy stakeholders have allocated capital with a “Field of Dreams” mindset – “if you build it, they will come” – because of an unsophisticated reliance on demographic trends, national demand forecasts and anecdote.

Flawed Assumptions

Despite abundant evidence that demand for healthcare services is flat, legacy demand forecasts assume perennial growth

Missing Inputs

Site selection tools based on Medicare data miss demand from commercially insured patients

Static Directories

Static directories are outdated and imprecise, creating an inaccurate view of provider supply

Make evidence-based capital allocation decisions for new access points

With visibility into shifting demand, provider alignment and market saturation, you can choose sites that deliver the maximum return on invested capital.
