After the Dell Children’s Medical Center first earned a LEED Platinum certification in 2007, it pursued a more challenging LEED for Healthcare with its new 86,000-square-foot tower, according to an article on the Healthcare Design website.

The decision target was anything that had a 12 percent rate of return or a six-year payback on the system.
