HCA Oviedo Land Purchase

An HCA Healthcare Inc. entity on Oct. 22 bought some vacant property near AdventHealth‘s corporate headquarters.

The Nashville, Tennessee-based health system’s Oviedo Medical Center LLC bought 14.67 vacant acres on Forest City Road from an entity tied to Orlando-based MMI DevelopmentMaitland West LLLP — on Oct. 22 for $15.5 million, according to Orange County property records. Executives with HCA Healthcare and MMI Development were not available for comment.

The property is at the southeast corner of State Road 414 and Forrest City Road abutting the Orange/Seminole county line. Of note, the site is across State Road 414 from AdventHealth’s corporate headquarters at 900 Hope Way in Seminole County.

HCA does not have a hospital or freestanding emergency room facilities in that area near the site at this time.

A number of projects are expected to grow the presence of health care providers in the area this year.

Each of the region’s three largest health care systems — Orlando Health, AdventHealth and HCA Healthcare Inc. — are slated to open new facilities, including hospitals, medical office buildings and freestanding emergency rooms.

These established players aren’t the only ones with construction projects on the books. Jacksonville-based Brooks Rehabilitation plans to open a rehab hospital in Lake Nona, its first in the Orlando area.

Non-health care companies also have medical projects in the works. For example, Bentonville, Arkansas-based Walmart Inc. is bringing a new health care concept to a few of its local stores.

Medical construction projects like these represent opportunities to add construction jobs, as well as provide huge-value projects for companies. Additionally, new health care facilities are needed in areas where the population is growing.

One example is multinational construction firm Skanska signing a $64 million contract to build Orlando Health’s 370,000-square foot, $341 million Orlando Health Jewett Orthopedic Institute. The project — which is expected to be completed by second-quarter 2023 — will create roughly 1,000 temporary construction jobs along with 500 permanent health care jobs.
