A company called EIR Healthcare is now selling units of its hospital room, called MedModular, for $814 a square foot on Amazon.com, according to an article on the CNBC website.
The design is customizable but all the rooms come with a bathroom and a bed. The rooms cost $285,000 each
"We're targeting hospitals and health systems," Grant Geiger, CEO of EIR Healthcare, said in the article. "There's a trend towards bringing more transparency in the health care space," he added.
Geiger said he's currently seeing an uptick in interest from hospitals in using the units for things like simulation labs, or urgent care facilities.
