Clallam County approvals, dollars, and lending establishments
With 2 healthcare approvals recorded, Clallam County gives a valuation almost nothing local to lean on
| What it measures | Value | How to read it |
|---|---|---|
| Approvals on record | 2 | Counted for the fiscal year the SBA publishes [5] |
| Total approved capital | $995,000 | Everything approved to healthcare borrowers, added up [5] |
| Mean deal size | $497,500 | The dollar column over the approval column [5] |
| Lenders sited in the county | 39 | Places that write credit locally, NAICS 522 [6] |
What the two tables above change about a file
The ratio that matters up front is 167.1 per 10,000, which decides whether a ramp schedule reads as conservative. With 2 approvals on record in Clallam County, expect a longer appraisal and a wider collateral discount. With $61,640 as the median household income, the payer mix in a projection has to match what Port Angeles households actually spend.
Where a file from this town usually lands
- Practice acquisition
- Expansion, relocation, and build-out
- Startup and de novo
- Working capital term loan
- Equipment financing and leasing
Built from what is enumerated here rather than from a national list, so a field with no presence in Port Angeles does not appear. Availability is still a Washington question.
What a funder reads first in Port Angeles
Drawn from the fields that actually practice here: primary care and family medicine, physical, occupational, and speech therapy, behavioral and mental health group practices
| Specialty | Read first in underwriting | Why the money is usually needed |
|---|---|---|
| Primary care and family medicine (64) | Panel size, Value-based contract exposure, Provider productivity | Acquisition |
| Physical, occupational, and speech therapy (63) | Visits per case, Referral source concentration, Payer mix and authorization rules | Startup or expansion clinic |
| Behavioral and mental health group practices (40) | Clinician retention and productivity, Payer mix and Medicaid concentration, Re-authorization and session limit exposure | Working capital through the credentialing lag |
The first column is Port Angeles's own NPPES count. The rest is how the field is generally underwritten, whether the address is Port Angeles or anywhere else.

Port Angeles owners, answered
01How many providers practice in Port Angeles, and in what?
Across 23 fields, Port Angeles carries 336 enumerated clinicians, 167.1 per 10,000 of the 20,112 people living here. The concentration is in primary care and family medicine, 64 of the total, then physical, occupational, and speech therapy at 63. Count practices from that only with care.
02Why does Clallam County show so little SBA activity?
Only 2 healthcare approvals appear for Clallam County in the published 7(a) and 504 file. Thin volume in Clallam County is a transaction count, not a verdict on borrowers here. The county still holds 39 credit intermediation establishments.
03What does Clallam County's shortage designation change?
Clallam County holds a HRSA designation covering primary care, dental, mental health. A pro forma for Port Angeles can cite it as the reason a vacancy is fillable, which is usually the weakest line in a ramp schedule.
04Which fields carry the volume in Port Angeles?
Primary care and family medicine at 64 providers and physical, occupational, and speech therapy at 63 lead the 23 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.
05How does the hospital in Port Angeles affect a practice file?
A Medicare-certified hospital operates in the town, which gives referral flow, a call schedule, and a clinical labor pool a funder can verify. 2 Medicare-certified providers are located here in total. It also sets the wage floor behind every hire in a 167.1 per 10,000 market.
06What does a $61,640 median income mean for case acceptance?
Median household income in Port Angeles runs $61,640. 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.
