Medical Franchise Industry Trends to Watch in 2017

June 28, 2017 by OrthoNOW Leave a Comment

By: Christine Dura

The medical franchise industry has exploded over the past decade. From dental practices to urgent care centers and beyond, smart entrepreneurs and licensed practitioners are taking advantage of the increased demand for convenient healthcare. When it comes to franchises, the roadmap is simple: provide a needed service across a variety of locations with the same quality and relative cost. Medical franchising is no different. The consumer wants quick, convenient, and affordable healthcare on their schedule. Nearly gone are the days that a patient is forced to head to the emergency room for something as simple as a strong cough. Today, a multitude of medical franchises exist to fill this very need. But how does the outlook appear for medical franchises and the health industry as a whole for the upcoming year?

Aging Population

As a large portion of the population continues to age the demand for healthcare increases. By 2030, the percentage of people over 65 will have grown from 13% to at least 18%. This means the opportunity for medical franchises will likely see no limit. Combined with this aging population comes the focus on treatment as opposed to prevention. Those in this age group are largely overweight and suffer from a litany of comorbidities associated with age and weight. Instead of focusing on prevention, the focus stays on management of conditions and treatment. This is shown in the demand for healthcare – especially frequent, convenient, and affordable treatment.

Increase in Healthcare Franchises

Due to the aging population’s need for healthcare, the opportunity to create new and specialized medical franchises is at an all-time high. The trend only looks to continue this year and beyond. People are comfortable with medical franchises like the urgent care center but interested in finding specialized centers that provide healthcare for other needs. Convenient care centers offering orthopedic specialization or a focus on geriatrics are prime to spread throughout the country to serve an aging population. In addition, franchises providing home healthcare or day care for elders are popular but will likely find a resurgence as this population begins to require these types of care.

Healthcare for Business People

With the advent of the medical franchise, you don’t specifically need to be a healthcare professional to get into the industry. Entrepreneurs can find more efficient ways to allow licensed physicians to provide quality healthcare. Franchise owners will focus on the backend of the business while physicians can truly focus on patient care. Without the stress of running a business, physicians can focus their time and energy on cutting edge methods of treatment for the aging population.

The bottom line is there is even more growth in store for the medical franchise. The aging population plays heavily into the opportunity for the healthcare franchising industry. From offering home healthcare services to providing specialized care for a specific set of the population, opening the right medical franchise will be relatively easy in the coming future.

I cannot begin to tell you how extraordinary the employees at OrthoNow Rehab are. Let’s begin with Kristen and Laura at... the front desk. They receive everyone with smiles and are always willing to accommodate any of your scheduling needs, not to mention appt., reminders and answering any questions you may have. Both therapists Amanda and Angela have definitely changed my life. Due to their care and expertise I have been able to return to my daily routine and activities. They are both extremely knowledgeable and their bedside manner’s are second to none. I would highly recommend OrthNow Rehab to all my family and friends.read more

Thank for helping make a stronger comeback.Also they have the best damn Cuban coffee in town!!read more

I have been going to OrthoNow Physical Therapy Center for 6 weeks to heal from my rotator cuff tear and bursitis on my... shoulder. The front desk ladies, Laura and Kristen are very sweet and professional. My therapist, Arley is dedicated, personable, enthusiastic, and good with patients. Since I’m having a great experience with OrthoNow, I will highly recommend this place to all of my friends, colleagues and family members if they ever get injured. I’m truly loving all the staff at OrthoNow Physical Therapy Center. 👍😍😄read more

This has been one of the worst experience I ever had with any service provider of any kind. People at this office hate... their job, starting with the main therapist that works in the morning. In several occasions I heard him cursing the fact he had to be there working in the morning. Then he would punish his patients by letting them sitting around waiting while he watched videos on his computer. I am returning from a new therapy office I had to go to complete my therapy and I just realized how poor of a service I was receiving at ortho now Doral. Do yourself a favor by spending a bit more time on research before choosing this place.read more

After two hand surgeries, OrthoNow is a Godsend. I had very limited movement in 2 fingers on my right hand. The “Double... A’s” (Angela and Amanda) have really been a light in this process. The care and concern that I’ve received has been great. It feels like a family. From the first appointment, Kristen has welcomed not only me but every patient that walks into the office by name. It means a lot that they show they care and you’re not just another person. Laura is the best and if you’re nice and tell her you know me, you just may end up with some of the best coffee on this side of the Palmetto! OrthoNow has really helped me on my road to recovery and restoring movement and flexibility to my hand. I’m happy to be family member now.read more

I am writing this review based on my last visit to the Orthonow office in Doral. I have visited this location numerous... times in the past, seeking medical attention and was always greeted with the upmost professionalism. This time the Physician Assistant on shift did not agree that I should be treated at all and directed me to contact another physician. At that moment I was in severe pain but understood that he had the right to refuse treatment. It would have been nice though if he had at least given me something for the pain. He did not agree with the treatment that I requested even though I received the same treatment at that location three times before. He instructed the person at the front desk to refund my copay and let me go.read more
