Leland Kaiser, American healthcare futurist, said "the hospital is a human invention and as such can be reinvented at any time." In the future, our healthcare model will be reinvented to support a proactive healing environment based on providing patient, family and staff comfort. Facilities must be functionally planned as well as attractively designed with an aesthetic appeal and therapeutic environment. Tomorrow's health facility types will be created superseding the traditional inpatient and outpatient-reoriented hospitals. These new facilities will incorporate changing technologies, demographics and serve continually changing modes of operation.
美国医疗保健未来学家利兰·凯泽表示：“医院是人类的发明，因此随时都可以进行重塑。”未来，我们的医疗保健模式将被重塑，以营造一个基于为患者、家属和工作人员提供舒适感的积极治疗环境。设施的规划不仅要注重功能，还要设计得美观，具有美学吸引力和治疗环境。未来的医疗设施类型将会出现，取代传统的以住院和门诊为导向的医院。这些新设施将融合不断变化的技术、人口结构，并服务于不断变化的运营模式。
