WHAT ARE MICRO-HOSPITALS?

Micro-hospitals, also known as neighborhood or community hospitals, have become a major part of the health care conversation in the last decade. In short, they are fully licensed hospitals that operate 24/7 in a fraction of the space of traditional acute care hospitals. They are equipped to respond to almost any medical issue, including those requiring critical care. While all micro-hospitals have a core set of services, the sites are also highly customizable, which allows organizations to adapt them to their target markets.

Top Strategic Uses

Expansion

Micro-hospitals can be deployed as part of an offensive strategy, allowing health systems to rapidly expand into new communities for a fraction of the cost and time typically required. Or from a defensive perspective, filling gaps between service areas to defend against competitive growth.

Low Cost

Micro-hospitals boast lower construction and overall operational costs. This low break-even point is due largely in part to the unique, lean staffing model utilized which allows most hospitals to achieve profitability in one year.

Patient Satisfaction

Micro-hospitals offer patients a premium experience and consistently score significantly higher than their larger counterparts in patient satisfaction. These facilities can be utilized to raise the health system’s overall performance and drive patient loyalty and repeat business.

SMALL FOOTPRINT

Micro-hospitals typically range from 20,000 to 40,000 square feet and consists of 8 ER and 8 inpatient beds. The smaller footprint requires significantly less capital investment and real estate and allows for more flexibility in site selection.

ACCESSIBILITY

Micro-hospitals can reduce patient travel time and increase outreach, boosting the ability of health systems to reach new patients. Many organizations have used micro-hospitals to enter growing retail areas to provide convenient healthcare access.

INTEGRATION

Micro-hospitals provide seamless transfer to higher levels of care with fully integrated medical record. The micro-hospital care team follows patients through transitions of care throughout the health system, supporting growth in both outpatient and inpatient services lines.
