SUMMARY:Educational Meeting -  Practical Insights on Healthcare Modular Solutions
DESCRIPTION:Eric Waller  \nDirector of CareAffirm \nEric is dedicated to building meaningful partnerships within the healthcare industry and advancing modular\, patient-centered solutions that prioritize safety\, efficiency\, and innovation. With more than 29 years of experience across healthcare facilities management\, construction\, regulatory compliance\, and emergency services\, he brings a balanced combination of strategic insight and operational execution to strengthen clinical environments and support sustainable growth. \nEric currently serves with CareAffirm\, where he focuses on the development and expansion of healthcare modular solutions designed to meet the evolving needs of medical\, mental health\, and behavioral health environments. His work centers on aligning design\, compliance\, and operational performance to deliver adaptable\, high-quality care settings that improve outcomes for patients\, staff\, and health systems. \nPreviously\, Eric spent more than a decade in executive and senior leadership roles with Medxcel/Ascension\, including Vice President of Support Services\, Area Vice President\, and Regional Director. In these roles\, he led large-scale operational strategies across national hospital portfolios\, negotiated enterprise service contracts\, oversaw multimillion-dollar capital programs\, and advanced compliance initiatives aligned with Joint Commission and DNV standards. His leadership consistently emphasized lifecycle optimization\, customer experience\, and the creation of resilient\, future-ready healthcare infrastructure. \nAcross every role\, he is guided by the belief that strong partnerships\, deep healthcare expertise\, and intentional collaboration are essential to delivering meaningful and lasting impact. Eric is passionate about helping organizations design\, build\, and maintain environments that support exceptional care delivery while advancing innovation across the healthcare ecosystem. \nPRESENTATION: \nPractical Insights on Healthcare Modular Solutions \nHealthcare modular solutions are most effective when positioned as a strategic delivery model\, not a construction alternative. When thoughtfully integrated into clinical planning\, modular environments can accelerate speed to occupancy\, improve cost predictability\, and enhance quality control through controlled manufacturing processes. \nSuccessful deployment depends on early alignment between clinical stakeholders\, design teams\, compliance experts\, and operational leadership. Modular solutions perform best in high-repeatability environments such as patient rooms\, behavioral health units\, urgent care centers\, ambulatory surgery centers\, and support spaces where standardization drives efficiency without compromising care delivery. \nKey advantages include schedule compression\, reduced site disruption\, improved safety performance\, and tighter cost management. Practical success requires disciplined integration with structural systems\, MEP coordination\, life safety compliance\, and state regulatory approvals. \nRather than replacing conventional construction\, modular healthcare solutions serve as a strategic complement that accelerates delivery timelines and reduces risk while preserving clinical integrity. When applied intentionally\, modular construction enable scalable\, resilient healthcare environments designed to support operational efficiency\, clinical excellence\, and long term financial stewardship. \nLunch / Meeting sponsored by CareAffirm

SUMMARY:Educational Meeting -  Ventilation Management Plan (VMP) Deployment
DESCRIPTION:SPEAKER BIO: \nMark Mochel\, MBA\, CHFM\, FACHE\, SASHE\, ACABE \nFounder and Principal \nBefore founding I2HC\, Mark was a Strategic Account Executive at Brightly\, A Siemens Company. Prior to Brightly\, he was a Co-Founder and Senior Vice President at Facility Health Inc.\, where he was instrumental in introducing new infrastructure investment solutions and benchmarking capabilities to the healthcare industry. Mark has a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering from Purdue University\, an MBA from The University of Michigan\, and has held executive leadership roles in multiple industries\, providing a unique perspective on the challenges facing healthcare facility management today. As an advocate for increased infrastructure investment in our industry\, and a member of the ASHE National Advisory Board\, Mark is passionate about sharing his experience with all who serve and are served through the environment of care. \nPRESENTATION: \nVentilation Management Plan (VMP) Deployment: Leveraging ASHE/ASHRAE Guideline 43 to Prioritize Strategic Infrastructure Investment \n Presentation Synopsis:  \nHealth care infrastructure is aging rapidly\, with the average age of plants now exceeding 13 years after decades of underinvestment. While hospitals face rising operational\, regulatory and environmental pressures\, new opportunities are emerging to redefine the ROI of infrastructure investment. ASHE and ASHRAE’s Guideline 43 enables facility leaders to link ventilation management\, asset performance and operational flexibility directly to financial outcomes and patient care. By aligning innovation with capital strategy\, organizations can elevate infrastructure from a cost center to a business value driver. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nDefine ASHE/ASHRAE Guideline 43 and explain how its comprehensive approach to ventilation management establishes a new framework for operating and evaluating HVAC infrastructure within health care facilities.\nUnderstand how infrastructure performance can be directly connected to financial outcomes\, enabling leaders to redefine ROI by linking HVAC and facility investment decisions to measurable operational and economic impacts.\nIdentify how ventilation and infrastructure management can strengthen patient care outcomes\, demonstrating the connection between optimized HVAC performance\,environmental quality\, and safe\, reliable clinical environments.\nRecognize how a policy-driven Ventilation Management Program (VMP) enables facility leaders to re-engage executive stakeholders\, elevating infrastructure from a capital expense to a strategic business asset that supports long-term organizational performance.\n\nLunch / Meeting sponsored by Infrastructure Investment HC\, L.L.C.
