Reading Johns Creek the way a credit committee does
At 48.2 clinicians per 10,000 residents, the catchment radius in a projection has to be defended rather than assumed. A request measured against 69 prior Fulton County approvals is priced on precedent, which shortens the questions about valuation. With $160,185 as the median household income, the payer mix in a projection has to match what Johns Creek households actually spend.
