Thank you Tristan. Is it mandatory for a hospital project, or we can choose to use LEED NC 2009? Thanks

If your project is an inpatient hospital, you need to use the HC standard. If your project is outpatient only, then you can choose. Most outpatient teams choose NC.

Thanks Susan. I'm assuming that if a hospital has both inpatient and outpatient facilities, the "inpatient" category applies (more stringent) and I will be using LEED HC.
