Question 1

Do I need to work with Globe Medical Realty Advisors (GMRA) to order a Medical Real Estate report?

Accepted Answer

No. The Medical Real Estate Calculator is an independent product. You can order any report directly with no obligation to engage with GMRA. Order the report, receive your data, and use it to make better medical real estate decisions.

Question 2

What is site neutrality and why does it matter for my real estate decision?

Accepted Answer

Site neutrality provisions reduce the reimbursement premium that hospital outpatient departments have historically received versus independent office settings. When that premium shrinks, the financial logic of hospital employment changes — and so does the competitive landscape for independent practices. If you are making a real estate decision in 2026, the market data you had three years ago may no longer reflect what your location can support.

Question 3

What data sources are used in the reports?

Accepted Answer

All reports are built from proprietary and publicly available market-level data including Medicare procedure activity, ICD-10 diagnosis patterns, DRG data, and NPI provider information. Data is sourced from Alpha Sophia, our healthcare intelligence partner. No patient records, PHI, and information from your practice will be requested.

Question 4

What is the difference between the three report tiers?

Accepted Answer

Market Review gives you a full market-level picture of provider density and demand for your specialty. Market Gap Analysis adds 15 procedure categories tailored to your specialty for deeper analysis. Custom & Multi-Unit includes customized procedure categories and is the most complete market picture available.

Question 5

Can I use this report in my lease negotiation even if I don't have a broker?

Accepted Answer

Yes — you can generally use the report in your lease negotiation even if you do not have a broker. That said, every report includes an optional 1:1 walk-through with a licensed medical real estate advisor.

Question 6

Is this tool appropriate for a physician group leaving a hospital system?

Accepted Answer

Yes — this is one of the most valuable use cases for the calculator. Before committing to your first independent lease, you need to know what the market supports for your specialty. The Market Review or Market Gap Analysis report gives you that foundation. If you decide later that you also want fiduciary tenant representation, Globe Medical Realty Advisors is available.

Question 7

What does "income producing factors" mean?

Accepted Answer

Income producing factors are the market-level data points that determine whether a location can support your specialty — including the volume of diagnoses your specialty treats in that market, the procedure activity already occurring, the number of competing providers, and the patient population's clinical demand profile. Revenue drives a practice — real estate should support it.
