Learn how healthcare facilities can reduce both risk and cost, providing facilities that are less expensive to operate, promote better patient care, and better serve the overall organizational mission.

Healthcare providers face many unique challenges in managing and maintaining facilities, from compliance with government regulations to changing healthcare delivery needs. The condition of their facilities can have a direct impact on both patient and staff satisfaction, and have become a competitive differentiator for many organizations.

Managing a portfolio of healthcare facilities, with multiple systems with varying levels of maintenance needs is a complex task. The use of a Capital Planning and Management Solution (CPMS™) can greatly aid healthcare providers in both their ongoing maintenance and multi-year capital planning efforts.

In this paper, VFA, Inc. draws on its experience in facilities assessment methodologies, business consulting and technology solutions for facilities management and planning to provide insights on how healthcare organizations can more effectively plan and prioritize capital improvements, improve asset utilization, and obtain needed funding.
