    Building Out Your Urgent Care Center

    Tracy Altemus

    BUILDING OUT YOUR URGENT care center requires the coordination of many moving pieces. Selecting the right design and choosing the right construction team are just two of the essential elements that will make the process as seamless as possible. A team with specific experience in urgent care centers, including issues related to permitting and construction, is a benefit to you as the owner because it will navigate the building process in the most cost-efficient and cost-effective way.

    CONSTRUCTION MANAGER…OR YOU?

    Managing the construction of an urgent care center is something you can choose to undertake yourself or assign to a general manager who works on your behalf. There is no doubt that hiring a construction manager will add to the cost of your project up front, but considerable savings can also be realized through the manager’s expertise and know-how. When searching for such an expert, make sure you do due diligence: conduct extensive research and reference checks. Ask your colleagues and others in the construction industry for referrals. Negotiating a flat fee for services rather than a percentage of construction costs tends to reduce risk.
