What Franklin County credit files already show
The published file shows 66 healthcare approvals in Franklin County, $33,316,600 in total, and that history is what an appraiser and a credit committee reach for
| What it measures | Value | How to read it |
|---|---|---|
| SBA healthcare approvals | 66 | Counted for the fiscal year the SBA publishes [5] |
| Approved dollars | $33,316,600 | Everything approved to healthcare borrowers, added up [5] |
| Average approval | $504,797 | The dollar column over the approval column [5] |
| Lending establishments in the county | 658 | Places that write credit locally, NAICS 522 [6] |
The consequence of these numbers
A file from here opens on 154.2 providers per 10,000 residents, and everything about volume follows from it. 66 approvals worth $33,316,600 in Franklin County means the size you are asking for has a local precedent to point at. A $106,004 median household income here sets the ceiling on what an elective or cash-pay line can be expected to carry.
Where a file from this town usually lands
- Practice acquisition
- Startup and de novo
- Working capital term loan
- Medical receivables factoring
- Expansion, relocation, and build-out
Weighted by how often each of the 31 local fields reaches for a program, not by what is easiest to refer. Ohio rules and the partner decide availability.

How Gahanna sits against the nearest metro
Distance to Columbus, OH is 7 miles. Appraisers borrow Columbus, OH rents, and the 35,544 residents set the ceiling on collections. At $106,004 median household income, the elective and cash-pay share of a projection is the line that gets tested first. No hospital operates here, so the referral sources and the call arrangement have to be named rather than assumed.

What owners in Gahanna ask
01How many providers practice in Gahanna, and in what?
548 enumerations sit at Gahanna addresses in the monthly NPPES file, working out to 154.2 for every 10,000 residents. 30 percent of them are physical, occupational, and speech therapy, and home health follows with 79. An enumeration is a clinician, so the 548 here cover fewer than 548 practices.
02What does SBA lending look like around Gahanna?
Healthcare borrowers in Franklin County took 66 approvals worth $33,316,600 in the published fiscal year, averaging $504,797. That is the comparable set an appraiser near Gahanna reaches for first.
03How many Medicare-certified providers are based in Gahanna?
The town carries 21 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.
04Is Gahanna underwritten as part of Columbus, OH?
Partly. Columbus, OH is 7 miles out, so rent and equipment comparables travel in from there while patients still come from the 35,544 residents around Gahanna. Cost side metro, revenue side local.
05Which fields carry the volume in Gahanna?
Physical, occupational, and speech therapy at 162 providers and home health at 79 lead the 31 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.
06What does a $106,004 median income mean for case acceptance?
Median household income in Gahanna runs $106,004. On elective and cash-pay work that is the number a funder converts into case acceptance, and it sets how much of a treatment plan a projection can assume gets started rather than deferred.
