Hospital Business Plan
Planning and Designing

Must meet the needs of the
patient it is going to serve
adequately.

It must be in a size and
proportions which the owners or
promoters will be able to build
and operate.

Sound Architectural Plan

Economic Viability

Effective Community
Orientation

Quality Patient Care
•
Protection from unwanted and unnecessary disturbances in
order to help speedy recovery
•
Separation of dissimilar activities
•
Control the nurses station should be positioned strategically
to enable proper monitoring of visitors entering and leaving
the ward, infants and children should be protected from theft
and infection etc.
•
Circulation all the departments of a hospital must be
properly integrated.
•
Separate all departments, yet keep them all together;
separate types of traffic, yet save steps for everybody; that is
all there is to hospital planning.

Needs of the Community
 Ease of accessibility
 Range of services offered
 Availability of specialists
 Availability of technology

Funds required for constructing,
furnishing and equipping the
hospital.
Operating funds- salaries, loans and
interest, other maintenance
expenses.
Arranging financial assistancepatient fees, bed charges, and other
modes of revenue generation
process.
Built in Equipment
These include counters and cabinets in
laboratory, Pharmacy and other parts of
the hospital, elevators, incinerators,
coolers, fixed sterilizing equipment
etc.These are usually included in the
construction contract and the planning of
these equipments is the architect's
responsibility.
Depreciable Equipment
This includes equipment that has a life of
five years or more and is not purchased
through construction contracts. These
are large pieces of furniture which have a
relatively fixed location and are capable
of being moved e.g., diagnostic and
therapeutic
equipment,
laboratory
instruments, office furniture etc.
Non Depreciable Equipment
These are small items with a low unit
cost and life span of less than five years.
These are generally under the control of
the store room and are bought through
other than construction contracts. They
include
kitchen
utencils,surgical
instruments,linen,waste baskets etc.

The most common method of estimating hospital
construction costs has been the “ per bed” method,
i.e., if the total cost of a 100 bedded hospital has
been Rs.400 lacks, the cost/ bed is Rs.4,oo,ooo.
Break up of project cost Acquisition of site
 Site survey, investigation
 Landscaping
 Construction contact-building with fixed
equipment
 Supervision and inspection
 Equipping the hospital-diagnostic and therapeutic
equipment
 Movable equipment, furniture etc.
 Architect's fee
 Consultant’s fee
 Site engineer’s fee

The necessity to bring facilities into use
as quickly as possible for operational
reasons.

The necessity to split a major project
into a smaller units as a contractual
consideration

The necessity of having certain
