03Which fields carry the volume in Winchester?
Volume concentrates in physical, occupational, and speech therapy, 410 of them, ahead of aba and autism therapy at 122, across 36 fields. A thin second field usually means a longer search for staff than a pro forma allows for.
04Is Winchester underwritten as part of Winchester, VA-WV?
Partly. Winchester, VA-WV is 0 miles out, so rent and equipment comparables travel in from there while patients still come from the 27,800 residents around Winchester. Cost side metro, revenue side local.
