New Study Spotlights Opportunities for Hospitals to Control Costs and Secure Capital


While hospital and health system executives face cost pressures from new regulations, consolidations and shifts in the delivery of care, they control a historically underutilized asset that can be used to their advantage: $1 trillion of owned real estate.

A new independent report commissioned by CBRE discusses the opportunities available to hospitals and health systems to enable more efficient, patient-centric operations through strategic management of real estate. The report also establishes the extent to which real estate affects the health-care industry:
  • Core hospital real estate (inpatient facilities) accounts for more than 42% of all health-care real estate in the U.S.  
     
  • Outpatient facilities—many of which are hospital-affiliated—account for another 27%.
     
  • Real estate occupancy accounts for 8% to 12% of hospital costs.
     
  • CBRE believes cost savings of 10% to 12% of total real estate costs may be achieved through outsourcing.
     
  • The top-50 owners of health-care real estate in the U.S. include 34 health systems that collectively own $227 billion worth of real estate.
