Leading the Future of Last-Mile Healthcare Delivery
CD Healthcare Infrastructure Partners specializes in assets that deliver healthcare services within the last mile of residential homes.
We modernize the last-mile footprint of outpatient facilities, which are the first point of medical services for the aging population.
CD Healthcare Infrastructure Partners is named 2024 Top 10 Healthcare Real Estate Service Providers by Healthcare Business Review.
Basic healthcare needs (i.e., chronic disease management for older adults) are addressed locally through a health system’s “spoke sites” located across the served market.
In cases where more intensive medical interventions are required, patients are routed to the “hub”, which is the main hospital campus or regional medical hub for intensive care.
(The “Spoke Sites”)
- Typically located within a 5 to 15-minute drive to where the healthcare consumers live. Some assets are within walking distance
- High population density in the primary market area:
- 20,000+ population in a 5-min drive time
- 150,000+ population in a 15-minute drive time
- Rapidly aging demographics:
- Age 65+: 2.5%-8.0% annual population growth (forward 5-year annual growth rate)
- Other key attributes of target last-mile care delivery assets:
- Great accessibility and visibility with easy on-site parking
- 8,000 SF to 25,000 SF in a standalone building
- 20-50 physicians and nurses for staffing efficiencies
- 15-30 exam rooms with the potential to expand
- Markets with strong entry barriers (i.e., no vacant land)
- The location is immediately surrounded by multifamily or single-family homes, schools, and supermarkets
- Communities that feature safety, quality of healthcare, affordable cost of living, low taxes, outdoor activities, public infrastructure, and amenities (i.e., golf courses)
- Redevelopment potential given the health system’s indication of interest in a new build-to-suit facility at our hard-to-replace “last-mile” locations
Last-Mile Healthcare Delivery:
Saving Money Where Money is Spent the Most
Chronic diseases (e.g., heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, etc.) pose a formidable healthcare challenge while accounting for an overwhelming 80% of the $4.3 trillion annual U.S. healthcare spending, which is nearly 20% of the US GDP.
Among older adults, the situation is especially concerning, with 95% of Americans aged 65 and above experiencing at least one chronic disease and 80% managing two or more. In other words, chronic disease is what matters most to U.S. healthcare spending.
As patient mobility decreases with age, there is an increasing demand for convenient, affordable outpatient care options closer to patients’ homes.
The shift to the last mile is crucial for lowering costs associated with chronic diseases, especially in preventing chronic conditions from developing into acute care episodes.
Providing the same service just five minutes away significantly enhances accessibility, improves adherence to treatment plans, and ultimately reduces overall healthcare costs.
The Silver Tsunami is Happening Now
By 2030, all 70M+ U.S. Baby Boomers will be age 65 or older, so 1 in 5 Americans will be age 65+
Massive Needs for Chronic Disease Care
90% of older adults (age 65+) have at least 1 chronic disease, and 80% have 2 or more
$4.3 Trillion in Annual Healthcare Spending
Healthcare spending is 18% of the U.S. GDP vs. defense is only 3% of the U.S. GDP
80% of Healthcare Spending on Chronic Diseases
Chronic diseases account for 80% of the $4.3 trillion U.S. annual healthcare spending
Healthcare Reimbursement
Health systems’ revenues depend on Medicare, which tracks patient satisfaction surveys. Patients demand more convenient and lower-cost care close to their homes
