The 37,800-square-foot CHI Health Clinic Valley View multispecialty clinic in Council Bluffs, Iowa recently opened its medical office building prototype. NexCore provided strategic and business planning, site analysis and acquisition, financing, programming, planning and development services for the project. Darland Construction served as general contractor; Leo A Daly was architect.
With the new clinic, residents of the Council Bluffs area have access to quality healthcare from primary care providers, priority care providers, women’s health specialists and pediatricians. Services provided at the 60-room CHI Valley View Clinic include behavioral health, women’s services, pediatrics, urology, dermatology, diabetic education, radiology, ultrasounds and physical therapy.
NexCore, in collaboration with CHI Health, created a groundbreaking prototype that includes three scalable buildings built using an adaptable structural steel frame to accelerate project design, significantly reducing timelines for future projects.
Operational features include:
- Centralized check-in
- Self-rooming: Patients can go straight to the exam room rather than sitting in waiting areas
- Patient portal: Patients can communicate with their physician, request prescription refills, schedule appointments and view their health record online.
- Consolidated electronic health records: Includes medical history, test results, medication lists, immunization records, physician instructions and health education information.
A grand opening was held for the prototype clinic, which will be replicated in locations across the country. 
CHI Health Clinic Valley View quadruples the capacity of the facility it replaced.
