Abstract: Abstract How might the architectural profession help healthcare leaders deal with future uncertainty and risk? This case, based on multiple master planning efforts, argues that the physical planning process should utilize similar ideas and frameworks as the business or strategic planning process. Specifically, employ scenario planning to challenge existing orthodoxies and traditional master planning approaches. From this, develop flexible options that can be contracted, expanded, or re-configured based on evolving models of care. Cross-discipline transformational efforts as outlined in this case may create a more common language for embracing uncertainty, expanding the sensitivities and impacts of architects, financiers, planners, as well as healthcare leaders.
