hospital startup cost
The cost varies depending where you are and what kind of hospital you want. Here are some examples for you. Note that hospital construction cost is generally expressed in cost per bed. Two new hospital buildings are opening this year in Dallas, Texas. Both are big teaching hospitals and cost around $1.5 million per bed to build. The University of Texas Southwestern hospital (picture below) is over 1.3 million square feet and has 532 beds. It cost $800 million. Parkland Memorial, Dallas County's public hospital, is about 2 million square feet and has 862 beds.
