Seniors Housing Industry Looks for New Ways to Bend Cost Curve, Improve Health Outcomes

by Jeff Shaw March 24, 2017

SAN DIEGO — Breaking down the silos between the traditional real-estate-based seniors housing providers and the growing number of health, wellness and supportive services providers will lead to better health outcomes for residents and slow the long-term growth of medical costs. But it’s a shift that won’t happen overnight. That’s one of the key messages Bob Kramer, founder and CEO of the National Investment Center for Seniors Housing & Care (NIC), aims to deliver. The 2017 NIC Spring Investment Forum, which happened March 22 through March 24 at the Hilton San Diego Bayfront, drew more than 1,600 industry professionals, a record number for the show, including more than 350 first-time attendees. The title of this year’s program was “Unlocking New Value Through Senior Care Collaboration.” Industry leaders are feeling a sense of urgency to tackle this issue. Five percent of Medicare recipients consume half of the federal program’s total expenditures, or about $60,000 per beneficiary, according to Kramer. By comparison, the bottom 20 percent account of Medicare recipients account for under $1,000 per beneficiary. “In terms of bending the cost curve — a favorite phrase in healthcare reform — the initial target is very much understandably on the high-need, high-cost population.

Duke Realty: Micro Hospitals Lead the Way Among Emerging Trends in Healthcare Sector

by Taylor Williams March 21, 2017

Facing shortages in construction labor and obstacles in originating financing for new projects, developers who specialize in healthcare properties are starting to think smaller, according to a recent study by Indianapolis-based REIT Duke Realty Corp. This means more micro hospitals. Micro hospitals are similar to community and small-town medical facilities — a hybrid of urgent care centers and full-fledged hospitals. They offer significantly fewer inpatient beds than regular hospitals — eight to 12 per facility is average — and typically span between 15,000 and 50,000 square feet. As such, they fit more comfortably into densely populated urban pockets and provide more immediate access to acute and emergency care. With delivery costs that range from $7 million and $30 million, depending on size, micro hospitals represent a cheaper means of financing a regular hospital. What else is driving demand for micro hospitals? According to the study, they offer a convenient, cost-effective alternative to larger hospitals without compromising the quality of care. When considering where to build a micro hospital, developers are encouraged to pinpoint high-visibility sites within 20 miles of a major hospital. This enables them to tap directly into the smaller submarkets for which micro hospitals are intended. “Anticipated changes …
