Leading the Future of Last-Mile Healthcare Delivery

ith 95 percent of Americans over 65 managing at least one chronic illness, healthcare costs associated with chronic diseases account for 80 percent of the nation’s $4.3 trillion in annual healthcare spending. In other words, chronic disease is the primary driver of U.S. healthcare spending. Addressing this challenge requires a shift in how and where care is delivered—and that’s where CD Healthcare Infrastructure Partners comes in.

Last-Mile Healthcare Delivery: Saving Money Where Money Is Spent the Most

As patient mobility decreases with age, there is an increasing demand for convenient, affordable outpatient care options closer to patients’ homes. The shift to the last mile is crucial for lowering costs associated with chronic diseases, particularly by preventing chronic conditions from developing into acute care episodes. Enter CD Healthcare Infrastructure Partners, a trailblazer in the last-mile healthcare delivery revolution. CD Healthcare is reshaping how and where essential care is provided, bringing it into patients’ neighborhoods, improving access, and reducing overall healthcare costs.

Transforming Care, One Community at a Time

While healthcare infrastructure has traditionally centered around large hospitals—often seen as the main hubs—CD Healthcare Infrastructure is revitalizing smaller, consumer-friendly ‘spoke’ sites to enhance accessibility and care. CD Healthcare focuses on investing in and modernizing strategically located outpatient centers to serve the ever-growing needs of aging populations dealing with chronic diseases like hypertension, diabetes, and arthritis.

“We bring top-tier healthcare just five minutes from patients’ homes,” says Clare Duan, founder and principal investor at CD Healthcare Infrastructure. “This proximity isn’t just convenient— it’s transformative for patient outcomes. By making care more accessible, these locations help patients adhere to treatment plans, reducing costly hospital admissions and the overall burden of chronic diseases, which account for 80% of U.S. healthcare spending.”

Alliances with Health Systems for Transformative Facility Upgrades

One striking example of CD Healthcare Infrastructure’s impact is its partnership with Banner Health, Arizona’s largest healthcare provider. In 2021, CD Healthcare teamed up with Banner Health to modernize an outpatient imaging and cancer diagnostic center in Phoenix’s Paradise Valley while keeping Banner Health’s costs stable. Renovations enhanced patient comfort without disrupting crucial services—an especially vital achievement during the COVID-19 pandemic, when maintaining continuity of care was paramount.

CD Healthcare’s partnership with Nemours Children’s Health on Philadelphia’s Main Line is another powerful example of its mission in action. When previous landlords overlooked crucial repairs and deferred maintenance, CD Healthcare stepped in, swiftly addressing these issues to ensure uninterrupted care for newborns and their families. This proactive approach not only safeguarded patient care but also solidified CD Healthcare’s commitment to upholding Nemours’ standards of excellence in facility management, demonstrating its dedication to creating safe, reliable healthcare environments.

Expert Leadership with a Mission-Driven Approach

CD Healthcare Infrastructure’s success lies in the hands of its highly experienced team of physicians and hospital executives, including former chief medical officers, department chairs, and real estate managers. This team brings clinical and operational insights to every decision, ensuring that each investment and renovation is medically sound and patient-focused.

Leading the Future of Last-Mile Healthcare Delivery

As healthcare continues to evolve, CD Healthcare Infrastructure remains at the forefront of this transformation. By focusing on last-mile delivery, the company addresses immediate patient needs while building a future-proof healthcare model that prioritizes accessibility, affordability, and proximity to home.
