Our health-care system is now governed by a new financial structure. From now on, care institutions have to finance their expenditure from income generated by the care they have provided. That makes it imperative to create a robust health care-related real estate policy for care institutions. Such a policy creates increasingly more scope for care institutions and market parties, such as investors, project developers, health insurers and pension funds, to create alliances. All parties involved benefit from such alliances.
The advantages for the care institutions include:
- Improvement in their financial position
- Better control of their capital burden, related to the amount of care provided
- Easier to raise capital (financing) thanks to risk spreading
- Keeping control in cases of disposal of property
- No deterioration in their tax position
The advantages for the market parties include:
- Strong annual growth is expected, making the care sector attractive to invest in
- The care sector has a low investment risk profile
The Health Care Real Estate team studies the creative alliances set up by care institutions and market parties and implements them. We have pooled our in-depth knowledge of the care sector with our expertise in the fields of regulatory, real estate, financing, tax matters, procurement and competition law. This makes us the logical choice if you are looking for full-service solutions in health care real estate.
