What lenders have already approved in Medina County
4 healthcare approvals sit in the county file, so an appraiser here works from a short comparable set
| Line | Amount | Reading and source |
|---|---|---|
| Approvals on record | 4 | Counted for the fiscal year the SBA publishes [5] |
| Total approved capital | $541,900 | Everything approved to healthcare borrowers, added up [5] |
| Mean deal size | $135,475 | The dollar column over the approval column [5] |
| Lenders sited in the county | 66 | Places that write credit locally, NAICS 522 [6] |
The consequence of these numbers
Density of 59.7 per 10,000 sets the patient draw a projection can claim without an argument. A short county record of 4 approvals usually means more documentation and a lower advance against the same collateral. With $85,313 as the median household income, the payer mix in a projection has to match what Brunswick households actually spend.
Programs the Brunswick mix reaches for
- Practice acquisition
- Startup and de novo
- Working capital term loan
- Medical receivables factoring
- Expansion, relocation, and build-out
The order comes from Brunswick's own provider mix, which physical, occupational, and speech therapy dominates at 26 percent. What a partner can actually place in Ohio is a separate question.
Underwriting by field in Brunswick
physical, occupational, and speech therapy, non-medical home care, home health account for most of what is enumerated in Brunswick, so those are the files funders see from this town
| Practice type | The pages that decide it | Typical capital event |
|---|---|---|
| Physical, occupational, and speech therapy (54) | Visits per case, Referral source concentration, Payer mix and authorization rules | Startup or expansion clinic |
| Non-medical home care (24) | Payer mix between waiver and private pay, Caregiver retention, Electronic visit verification compliance | Payroll funding against waiver and managed care receivables |
| Home health (19) | Medicare certification first, Payer mix second, Days in accounts receivable third | Payroll between visit and remittance |
The first column is Brunswick's own NPPES count. The rest is how the field is generally underwritten, whether the address is Brunswick or anywhere else.

What the geography does to a Brunswick projection
18 miles separate Brunswick from Cleveland, OH. Lease pricing follows Cleveland, OH, while revenue stays capped by the 35,166 residents here. Households here carry $85,313 in median income, and that ceiling decides how much of a treatment plan gets started rather than deferred. With no hospital in town, a projection has to name where referrals and coverage come from. Higher education here explains why summer looks unlike the rest of the year.

Questions from Brunswick
01How many providers practice in Brunswick, and in what?
NPPES lists 210 providers at a Brunswick practice address, 59.7 per 10,000 residents across 24 tracked fields. Physical, occupational, and speech therapy accounts for 54 of them, 26 percent of the total, with non-medical home care next at 24. Read that as clinicians: 210 enumerations, not 210 owners.
02What does Medina County's shortage designation change?
The primary care, dental, mental health designation HRSA carries on Medina County is a recruiting instrument: it puts repayment incentives in front of candidates, which is how a hiring plan for 35,166 residents gets past the question of who would take the job.
03Why does Medina County show so little SBA activity?
Medina County shows 4 approvals in the SBA healthcare file, which means an appraiser reaches outside the county for comparables. Few sales, not weak credit, is the usual reason. 66 lending establishments operate locally.
04Is Brunswick underwritten as part of Cleveland, OH?
Cleveland, OH sits 18 miles away, close enough that appraisers reach into that market for rent and resale comparables while your patient draw stays local. The comparables read Cleveland, OH; the 35,166 residents set the ceiling a projection can defend.
05Is there local lending capacity in Medina County?
County Business Patterns records 66 credit intermediation establishments in Medina County. That is the local origination bench, and it decides whether a file gets underwritten by somebody who has seen Brunswick rents and resale before or by somebody working from a screen.
06There is no hospital here. Does that hurt a loan?
No Medicare-certified hospital operates in Brunswick, so referral flow and staffing come from Medina County and from Cleveland, OH. Name the referral sources and the call arrangement and it stays a logistics question.
