Healthcare design is being pushed to the limit thanks to COVID-19. To ease the stress, experts on the panel emphasized modular construction as a way to allow healthcare facilities to be flexible.

The roundtable also discussed the growing demand for telehealth and UV disinfecting equipment. Learn more about the discussion from moderator Sara Marberry or watch the full program for free at Construction Specialties.
