This panel will explore the continued growth of shifting healthcare services from hospital settings to outpatient facilities, driven by factors like competitive care shifts, the U.S. obesity epidemic, and an aging population. Panelists will discuss how outsourcing health services are shaping tenancy mixes and developing efficient medical ecosystems outside hospital walls, while also addressing the complexities hospitals face in managing service lines across diverse properties. Additionally, the session will highlight how medical education, hospital administration, and other non-clinical but healthcare-aligned uses are increasingly moving into outpatient settings, reshaping the healthcare landscape.
