Several of the 10 skilled nursing, assisted living, and memory care enumerations can belong to one practice, so the column counts clinicians rather than businesses or owners
Broward County approvals, dollars, and lending establishments
Lenders in Broward County have already closed 95 healthcare approvals, averaging $478,471, which is the size a new file gets read beside
| Measure | Published figure | What sits behind it |
|---|---|---|
| Healthcare files approved | 95 | Counted for the fiscal year the SBA publishes [4] |
| Dollars behind them | $45,454,700 | Everything approved to healthcare borrowers, added up [4] |
| Typical approval size | $478,471 | The dollar column over the approval column [4] |
| Credit offices operating locally | 1,200 | Places that write credit locally, NAICS 522 [6] |
The consequence of these numbers
At 22.7 clinicians per 10,000 residents, the catchment radius in a projection has to be defended rather than assumed. A request measured against 95 prior Broward County approvals is priced on precedent, which shortens the questions about valuation. A $63,423 median household income here sets the ceiling on what an elective or cash-pay line can be expected to carry.
