San Joaquin County approvals, dollars, and lending establishments
The published file shows 12 healthcare approvals in San Joaquin County, $5,490,000 in total, and that history is what an appraiser and a credit committee reach for
| Measure | Published figure | What sits behind it |
|---|---|---|
| Approvals on record | 12 | Counted for the fiscal year the SBA publishes [4] |
| Total approved capital | $5,490,000 | Everything approved to healthcare borrowers, added up [4] |
| Mean deal size | $457,500 | The dollar column over the approval column [4] |
| Lenders sited in the county | 238 | Places that write credit locally, NAICS 522 [6] |
Reading Ripon the way a credit committee does
The ratio that matters up front is 30.2 per 10,000, which decides whether a ramp schedule reads as conservative. A request measured against 12 prior San Joaquin County approvals is priced on precedent, which shortens the questions about valuation. With $120,061 as the median household income, the payer mix in a projection has to match what Ripon households actually spend.
The programs this provider mix points at
- Practice acquisition
- Startup and de novo
- Working capital term loan
- Expansion, relocation, and build-out
- Equipment financing and leasing
Weighted by how often each of the 13 local fields reaches for a program, not by what is easiest to refer. California rules and the partner decide availability.
The first pages of a Ripon file
Drawn from the fields that actually practice here: physical, occupational, and speech therapy, primary care and family medicine, chiropractic
| Specialty | Read first in underwriting | Why the money is usually needed |
|---|---|---|
| Physical, occupational, and speech therapy (15) | Visits per case, Referral source concentration, Payer mix and authorization rules | Startup or expansion clinic |
| Primary care and family medicine (9) | Panel size, Value-based contract exposure, Provider productivity | Acquisition |
| Chiropractic (8) | Cash plan revenue, Personal injury receivable age, Visit volume | Startup or acquisition |
The first column is Ripon's own NPPES count. The rest is how the field is generally underwritten, whether the address is Ripon or anywhere else.
