Primary Responsibilities
John Driscoll serves as President of Alter+Care, the healthcare development arm of The Alter Group. His experience includes strategic business development, financing and operational activities for Alter+Care as it continues to perform as one of the top 10 healthcare development firms in the nation.

Mr. Driscoll's daily analysis of the marketplace encompasses not only real estate, but the overall market as it pertains to the healthcare profession. This includes federal and state regulations and Medicare/Medicaid reimbursements. Current trends he can illuminate include the general economic downturn as it pertains to healthcare, fluctuations in midterm interest rates and ten-year treasuries, the federal budget and its reimbursement for healthcare services, and the continuous shift of medical services to the outpatient arena, thereby reducing hospital stays and increasing demand for ambulatory care.

Background
Previously, Mr. Driscoll directed all healthcare-related real estate activities for Rush University Medical Center, including strategic facilities planning, capital budgeting, capital development projects, property management and leasing. His most recent move in a real estate career that began in 1978 was joining The Alter Group to develop its Alter+Care affiliate in 1996.
Project Experience
John Driscoll's pioneering project with Alter+Care was the development of Chicago's CORE Center, a cutting-edge 60,000 SF outpatient healthcare facility dedicated to the prevention, care and research of HIV and related infectious diseases. The facility was cited by the Chicago Sun-Times as Build-to-Suit Project of the Year.

Current projects include a medical office building totaling 70,000 SF for CHRISTUS Spohn Health System in Corpus Christi, TX; Morehead Medical Plaza, a 185,000 SF medical office building for Carolinas HealthCare System in Charlotte, NC; Terrace Park Professional Center, a 60,000 SF medical office building for Trinity Regional Health System in Bettendorf, IA; Madison Medical Plaza, a 70,000 SF medical office building for Provena Saint Joseph Medical Center in Joliet, IL; and Provena Medical Building at Caton Farm, a 35,000 SF medical office building for Provena Health System in Plainfield, IL.
