Loan activity in Rankin County
2 healthcare approvals sit in the county file, so an appraiser here works from a short comparable set
| Measure | Published figure | What sits behind it |
|---|---|---|
| SBA healthcare approvals | 2 | Fiscal year published in the SBA file [5] |
| Approved dollars | $1,400,000 | Sum of approvals to healthcare borrowers [5] |
| Average approval | $700,000 | Dollars divided by approvals [5] |
| Lending establishments in the county | 119 | Credit intermediation establishments, NAICS 522 [6] |
The consequence of these numbers
A file from here opens on 141.9 providers per 10,000 residents, and everything about volume follows from it. A short county record of 2 approvals usually means more documentation and a lower advance against the same collateral. Household income of $93,073 in Brandon is the number a lender uses to sanity check the self-pay share of a revenue projection.
Programs the Brandon mix reaches for
- 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 24 local fields reaches for a program, not by what is easiest to refer. Mississippi rules and the partner decide availability.
The first pages of a Brandon file
Drawn from the fields that actually practice here: physical, occupational, and speech therapy, primary care and family medicine, general dentistry
| Field | What the file turns on | The capital event behind most requests |
|---|---|---|
| Physical, occupational, and speech therapy (171) | Visits per case, Referral source concentration, Payer mix and authorization rules | Startup or expansion clinic |
| Primary care and family medicine (33) | Panel size, Value-based contract exposure, Provider productivity | Acquisition |
| General dentistry (33) | Three years of collections history, Hygiene as a share of collections, Overhead ratio and owner add-backs | Acquisition of an established practice |
The first column is Brandon's own NPPES count. The rest is how the field is generally underwritten, whether the address is Brandon or anywhere else.
How Brandon prices against its neighbors
141.9 per 10,000 is the figure a neighboring town gets compared against when an appraiser prices Brandon
| Market | Population | Clinicians | Density per 10,000 | Distance in miles |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Brandon (current) | 25,870 | 367 | 141.9 | |
| Flowood | 10,853 | 465 | 428.5 | 6 |
| Pearl | 28,458 | 111 | 39.0 | 6 |
| Ridgeland | 24,576 | 712 | 289.7 | 14 |
| Madison | 28,210 | 373 | 132.2 | 16 |
| Byram | 12,656 | 108 | 85.3 | 18 |
| Clinton | 26,617 | 223 | 83.8 | 21 |
How Brandon sits against the nearest metro
Distance to Jackson, MS is 13 miles. Appraisers borrow Jackson, MS rents, and the 25,870 residents set the ceiling on collections. Households here carry $93,073 in median income, and that ceiling decides how much of a treatment plan gets started rather than deferred. Wages here are anchored by the Medicare-certified hospital in town, which is what a staffing line gets measured against. Brandon is the Rankin County seat, so county employment steadies the payer mix.

What owners in Brandon ask
01How many providers practice in Brandon, and in what?
NPPES lists 367 providers at a Brandon practice address, 141.9 per 10,000 residents across 24 tracked fields. Physical, occupational, and speech therapy accounts for 171 of them, 47 percent of the total, with primary care and family medicine next at 33. Read that as clinicians: 367 enumerations, not 367 owners.
02Why does Rankin County show so little SBA activity?
The published file records 2 7(a) and 504 approvals to healthcare borrowers in Rankin County. That tracks how few Rankin County practices changed hands that year, not credit quality. 119 credit intermediation establishments operate in Rankin County, so the lending capacity is local even where the healthcare history is not.
03What does Rankin County's shortage designation change?
The primary care, dental, mental health designation HRSA carries on Rankin County is a recruiting instrument: it puts repayment incentives in front of candidates, which is how a hiring plan for 25,870 residents gets past the question of who would take the job.
04How does the hospital in Brandon affect a practice file?
Referral flow, coverage, and the local pay scale all trace back to it. The town carries 2 Medicare-certified providers in total. A Brandon projection that names the call arrangement reads better than one that assumes it.
05Which fields carry the volume in Brandon?
Physical, occupational, and speech therapy at 171 providers and primary care and family medicine at 33 lead the 24 fields enumerated here. A funder reads that mix as the local competition set and the local hiring pool at once, before it reads a single line of your own numbers.
06How many Medicare-certified providers are based in Brandon?
The town carries 2 Medicare-certified providers. On a receivables request that number sets the expected collection lag, which is priced before anything about the practice itself is read.
