How Big is the Health Care Industry and Is It Worth Investing in Medical Franchises?

For many good investors, finding an industry that is recession proof is the first step in their search process. This is why medical franchise opportunities are so lucrative – the healthcare industry is perhaps the most recession-proof of all industries. This is why, over the years, the health care industry has been both an attractive and “safe option” for those wishing to strengthen their financial portfolio with minimal risk.

In addition, with the implementation of the Affordable Care Act which included the disruption of traditional medical delivery methodologies, medical business opportunities have become especially attractive to savvy, visionary entrepreneurs.

The Lucrative Healthcare Industry

Investors are acquiring health care franchises at record pace. The CDC states that the orthopedic health care industry contributes $42 billion annum to the United States Economy and urgent care generates another $20 billion per year.

According to U.S. News and World Report, one of the benefits of investing in a franchise is the low risk factor (Williams, 2013). What this means is, while there is a financial investment required in buying a franchise, you’re not walking through this journey alone. This is especially true with OrthoNOW. We want your franchise to thrive, and we will help support and guide you throughout your journey. You’ll be surrounded by a team of franchise owners who have also invested in OrthoNOW and by a Franchisor who has created a tool kit designed to take your center to profitability quickly.

Why medical franchises are “safe” investments

The term “safe” can be a gray area but when it comes to staking your claim in medical franchises it is a safer option than many other investments because healthcare does not take a holiday and injuries are not planned. Therefore, health care is simply not affected by recession. Access to quality medical care is a constant and steady need regardless of what else is happening in the world. Innovative business models like OrthoNOW, provides the investor with access to an industry with exponential growth opportunity with entrance points available on the ground floor.
