Economic Needs Analysis Report · MCU15/0122

      Creating a dedicated and specialised health care precinct surrounding the Noosa
       Hospital, improving convenience for patients and medical professionals alike and
       capitalising on the benefits of creating a health based ‘hub’ or cluster.

      Improving opportunities for training and sharing of knowledge and ideas amongst
       medical practitioners and specialists within one consolidated precinct.

      Presenting opportunities for the expansion of the Noosa Private Hospital with
       opportunities for medical specialists to relocate to purpose built suites but remaining
       proximate to the Hospital.

It is Urban Economics’s opinion that the proposed health and specialist centre including the
relocation and expansion of Noosa Radiology will have a net positive economic and social
benefit for the Noosa Community and would not undermine the integrity or impact on the
performance of the centres hierarchy.
