Malls May be the
Newest Healthcare
Destination:
6 Things to Know
By Anuja Vaidya
I
ncreasingly, retail spaces are
adding offices offering med-
ical services, according to
a Bloomberg report.
Here are six things to know:
1. Recently, a number of health-
care organizations opened med-
ical offices in malls. For exam-
ple, Prime Healthcare manages a
23,500-square-foot ambulatory care
facility at the Plymouth Meeting Mall
near Philadelphia. A second exam-
ple is Los Angeles-based Cedars-Si-
nai Health System, which is planning
to open a 32,000-square-foot outpa-
tient medical office at The Runway at
Playa Vista.
2. There are a number of reasons
for this trend, including the fact that
mall operators are looking to sup-
plement the disappearance of tra-
ditional retailers who face intense
competition from online retailers.
3. The healthcare industry is look-
ing to bring services closer to their
patients, which further drives this
trend.
4. Strip malls appear to be a pop-
ular choice for a medical office as
compared to a traditional mall. This
is primarily due to the fact that strip
malls allow patients to park close to
the medical office, making it more
convenient for elderly patients in
particular.
5. Setting up offices in malls
or retail spaces is also becom-
ing a popular option for health-
care companies because they
can get good deals on rent and
allowances. n
