Regulatory changes, increasing competitive pressures and rapid technological advances are transforming the healthcare industry, including the construction of new state-of-the-art medical facilities, according to an article on the Insurance Net website.
The ACE Group recently released an advisory that examines the potential environmental risks facing new construction or renovation of healthcare construction projects.
The advisory details the ways in which these risks can jeopardize patient health and lead to significant financial losses.
It also provides risk management recommendations for construction and facilities management to help address these critical exposures and minimize the risk of pollution incidents at healthcare worksites.
