It is no surprise that regulatory issues and the changes in continuum of care continue to effect the way healthcare systems are delivering services. In preparation for the upcoming RealShare Healthcare event, held at the JW Marriott Camelback in Scottsdale, AZ, GlobeSt.com exclusively chatted with panelist Julie Johnson, principal of the health care affinity group at Avison Young, on the subject.

“Despite uncertainty when it comes to healthcare legislation, this sector continues to strengthen,” explains Johnson. “We are seeing a building momentum that includes implementation of the latest technologies, a shift to increased outpatient settings, a rising demand for retail-style delivery, and job growth for healthcare workers across the board.”

Johnson tells GlobeSt.com that all of these factors bode well for the MOB investment sales market, making it extremely strong nationwide and a sector that has an increasingly diverse and expanding investor pool.
