There are several variables that impact the final cost of a modular medical clinic, including, but not limited to:
- The overall floor plan and layout
- The extent of factory completion versus on-site construction (for example, a brick exterior must be installed on site)
- Interior and exterior finishes
- Project location and site conditions
- Applicable state building codes
- Required wind load and seismic ratings
- Module size and configuration
- Total linear footage and grade of cabinetry
- The amount and complexity of plumbing systems
- Imaging shielding, electrical and structural requirements – if any. To include Xray, CT, MRI, Etc.
Because of these factors, developing an accurate quote requires time to fully evaluate and research the specific details of your project.
Basic Building - $160-$170 per square foot
The basic building is a great starting point for many. Some of the major users of the basic building are:
- Rural Health Clinics
- Industrial Health Clinics
- Cost conscious
- Start up clinics
- Quick revenue stream and ROI
These basic buildings are completed for the most part in the factory using standard finishes. Some aspects of the basic building include:
- High Quality 20mil wear layer plank look rolled vinyl with limited selections. [Common upgrade is to install flooring on site – usually LVP]
- Vinyl Coated Gypsum walls vs mud/tape/paint. [Common upgrade is to Mud/Tape/Paint the lobby with remainder being Vinyl Coated Gypsum]
- 8′ ceilings with 2’x2′ tegular acoustical tile and LED recessed lighting [Common upgrade is 9′ ceilings]
- No parapet around the perimeter of the building to hide the roof line
- Standard foundation cover to match exterior [Common upgrade is Urestone or Nichiha foundation cover and corners]
High-End Modular Construction Approach $200-$220+/sqft
Scope of Work
What Rose Handles vs. What You Handle
Rose Handles the Building
Rose takes a lot off your plate when building your next facility:
- Building design and layout
- Full engineering (structural, MEP, architectural)
- State plan review and approvals
- Construction of the building in a controlled environment
- All required inspections during the build process
You Handle the Site
Site-related items remain in your control:
- Civil work and site preparation
- Stairs, decks, and ramps
- Driveways and parking lots
- Generators and utilities (power, septic/sewer)
- Signage and exterior site features
Our Proven Process
1. Initial Discovery Stage
We help bring your vision to life:
- Rose provides multiple example floor plans to spark ideas
- Our team works with your vision and budget to create a custom, code-compliant design
- We collaborate on finishes and curb appeal
- A full take-off and detailed proposal with pricing is provided
2. Design, Engineering & Approval
Once you choose to move forward:
- Engineering begins while you start site work in parallel
- Rose provides shop drawings for your review and revisions
- After shop drawings approval, we complete:
- Structural calculations
- MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing) calculations
- Full architectural package
- State approvals begin (can take 60+ days depending on location and complexity)
- You receive a complete engineered package for local permitting, including:
- Foundation plans
- Electrical loads
- Plumbing details
- HVAC specifications
3. Final Delivery & Installation
From factory to your site:
- Within 90–120 days, modules are ready for delivery
- On-site installation typically takes 3–14 days, depending on complexity
- Building is ready for utility connections (“hook up to the grid”)
- Final step: personalize your space with furniture, décor, and branding
