Healthcare buildings are structures designed for medical procedures and related activities. They encompass buildings that house hospitals, along with associated operations such as laboratories, laundries, outpatient departments, nurse homes, training facilities, and central service operations linked to a hospital. Additionally, healthcare buildings include structures that house educational or training programs for medical professionals, serving as an integral component of a hospital.
The primary facility types within healthcare buildings consist of hospitals, Ambulatory Surgical Centers (ASCs), long-term care facilities and nursing homes, academic institutes, and others. Hospitals, specifically, provide specialized medical and nursing care, along with medicinal supplies, through various areas such as halls, waiting rooms, labs, surgical rooms, and other spaces dedicated to treating people's health. Service types for healthcare buildings encompass both new construction and refurbishment, catering to both public healthcare and private healthcare facilities.

The healthcare buildings market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $301.04 billion in 2024 to $309.93 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.0%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to strong economic growth in emerging markets, increased healthcare spending, a rising number of patients, a rise in the number of medical tourists, and a rise in government support.
The healthcare buildings market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $353.84 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to an increasing aging population, increasing chronic diseases, rapid urbanization, and a rising population. Major trends in the forecast period include integrated building systems to enhance patient care, safety, and operational efficiency, sustainability, and green building practices to reduce environmental impact, increasing investments in healthcare buildings to improve facilities, and strategic partnerships and collaborations among market players to expand their product portfolio and geographic presence.
The anticipated rise in the detection of both acute and chronic disorders is poised to drive the growth of the healthcare-building market in the coming years. Acute disorders, characterized by their sudden onset and short duration, as well as chronic illnesses that develop over an extended period, contribute to the increasing demand for healthcare infrastructure. The provision of hospital facilities and associated services plays a crucial role in addressing the needs of individuals dealing with both acute and complex health conditions. For example, recent findings from the Australian Bureau of Statistics reveal that nearly 78.6% of Australians have at least one long-term health issue, with 46.6% of the population having at least one chronic illness. This growing detection of health issues underscores the escalating demand for healthcare infrastructure, contributing to the expansion of the healthcare-building market.
The rising healthcare expenditure is expected to drive the growth of the healthcare buildings market in the future. Healthcare expenditure refers to the total amount spent on healthcare goods and services, including medical equipment, hospital services, physician services, prescription drugs, and public health activities. Increased investment in healthcare infrastructure and services benefits healthcare buildings in various ways. For instance, in December 2023, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, a US federal agency, reported that U.S. healthcare spending rose by 4.1% in 2022, reaching a total of $4.5 trillion, marking a higher growth rate than the 3.2% increase observed in 2021. Therefore, the growing healthcare expenditure is propelling the growth of the healthcare buildings market.
A noteworthy trend in the hospital buildings market is the emphasis on product innovation as major companies strive to bolster their positions through the development of cutting-edge products. Notably, RSC Architects, a USA-based architectural firm, introduced the Helena Theurer Pavilion at Hackensack University Medical Center in February 2023. This innovative nine-story surgical and intensive care tower incorporates the latest 'smart hospital' technology, providing an enhanced patient experience with private rooms and advanced facilities.
The surge in investments in healthcare buildings is a response to the escalating demand for efficient healthcare services and infrastructure. In February 2022, St. David's HealthCare in Austin, Texas, announced a substantial investment of $953 million to establish two new acute care hospitals and a mental health facility, along with expanding services at existing facilities. Furthermore, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors approved a $1.7 billion capital project for Harbor-UCLA Medical Center in West Carson, California, in February 2022. This project aims to introduce new healthcare services while ensuring compliance with upgraded earthquake requirements.
In April 2022, Cianbro Corp., a US-based construction company, completed the acquisition of R. C. Stevens Construction Company, a Florida-based commercial construction firm specializing in healthcare buildings. This strategic acquisition positions both companies for sustained growth and market expansion in the Southeast, solidifying their presence in the healthcare construction sector.
