NEMA Launches Healthcare Facilities Council

The National Electrical Manufacturers Association has established a Healthcare Facilities Council to help improve healthcare delivery environments, while expanding market opportunities for manufacturers serving the healthcare facilities market. The HFC creates a forum for professionals to share knowledge and best practices in the area of healthcare delivery environments and execute projects that improve outcomes for the healthcare, electrical and medical imaging industries.

“The healthcare industry is facing transformative changes driven by new technology adoption, consumer demographics and regulation. The industry is also at the forefront of a global pandemic, pushing the limits of infrastructure and operations,” said NEMA President and CEO Kevin J. Cosgriff. “The creation of this council allows NEMA members and industry allies to identify and take advantage of trends, challenges and opportunities within healthcare facilities.”

“NEMA and MITA members have already started investigating healthcare facilities market trends such as cybersecurity, internet of things technology and the impacts of COVID-19,” said NEMA Building Systems Division Industry Director Marc Neufcourt. “This council provides an efficient structure whereby ideas can be shared, evaluated and acted upon for the benefit of both our members and the broader healthcare industry. I encourage any organization involved in the lifecycle of healthcare facilities to join this council and help us address the needs of the sector.”

HFC membership is open to NEMA/MITA members, trade associations operating within the healthcare space, healthcare facility owners, designers, engineers and regulators for the healthcare industry. To join, contact Marc Neufcourt at marc.neufcourt@nema.org.
