Maximizing ROI: Health System Finance, Real Estate, Population Health, Value-Based Care, Clinical Integration, CON

Capital constraints, CON laws, and the shift to ambulatory care are reshaping value-based delivery. Leaders must hit the trinity of clinical outcomes, operational throughput, and financial performance while preserving ratings and liquidity. One question we’re hearing: How should our health system balance ambulatory expansion with acute-care investment to maximize capital efficiency and population health impact? As healthcare-exclusive strategists since 1989—validated by our acquisition by Duke Realty—we integrate operations, population health, and capital planning to turn strategy into execution.

The fastest ROI increasingly comes from repositioning underutilized space, right-sizing ambulatory networks, and embedding digital into the care model. As a healthcare-exclusive platform since 1989—validated by our acquisition by Duke Realty—and a partner to national health systems on $100M+ on and off-campus developments, Bremner translates strategy into measurable [...]
