6,000 sf existing LEED NC V2.2 certified.
3,000 sf (Max) addition
The entire existing building and proposed addition is a outpatient healthcare operation. I don’t know if it is licensed or not. We want the addition to be LEED certified as well. At this point we the best approach to this is to only certify the addition and leave the existing alone. We should be able to do this since the mechanical systems are separate from the existing, etc. Do I use LEED NC or LEED HC or do I have a choice (we are past the Jan 1 2012 date)?
Thank you very much,
Lee

Lee,
Is this outpatient or inpatient? What services are being provided in the addition? At 3,000 SF, it sounds like outpatient. If it is a 'doc in the box', then I would go with NC unless there are patient population issues (HIV clinic for example).
