2014 SAN ANTONIO HEALTHCARE & BIOSCIENCE ECONOMIC IMPACT STUDY [based on 2013 data] Conducted by Richard V. Butler, Ph.D. Mary E. Stefl, Ph.D. Trinity University San Antonio, Texas 1
OVERVIEW HIGHLIGHTS Unlike most previous versions, this current study includes the impact of The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, some elements of the military medical presence in the region, and the multiplier effects of the goods and services local healthcare and bioscience businesses sell or deliver to customers and patients outside the region. This study attempts, as in the 2009 and 2011 studies, to include credible approximations of the size of these important contributors to the San Antonio economy. This expanded definition of the industry is represented in the comprehensive estimates. To facilitate comparisons with the past, traditional estimates using the previous industry definition are also reported. The Healthcare and Bioscience Industry continues to be one of San Antonio s largest industries. Its economic impact in 2013 was $23.9 billion measured conservatively, and approximately $30.6 billion by a more comprehensive estimate. By the more comprehensive estimate, the industry paid $7.6 billion in wages and salaries to 164,537 employees in 2013. Nearly one of every six San Antonio employees works in the Healthcare and Bioscience Industry. The Healthcare and Bioscience Industry has added 41,567 net new jobs over the past decade (a 40% increase), fueling San Antonio s growth. As one of San Antonio s leading industries, the Healthcare and Bioscience Industry has shown steady growth and innovation over the past two decades. 2 2014 Healthcare & Bioscience Economic Impact Study San San Antonio, Texas 3
OVERALL GROWTH & IMPACT The economic impact of San Antonio s Healthcare and Bioscience Industry in 2013 totaled $30.6 billion. The impact of San Antonio s Healthcare and Bioscience Industry in 2013 is more than twice the size of the industry a decade ago, and more than four times its size in 1993. Measured by the dollar volume of final sales of its products and services, the economic impact in 2013 totaled $30.6 billion by the comprehensive estimate, which is 6% above that for 2011, and 23% above the 2009 level. By the traditional method, which is the measure most useful for comparison over time, the 2013 economic impact was $23.9 billion, a healthy 10.6% increase from the 2011 level. The economic impact of the Healthcare and Bioscience Industry has more than doubled in the past decade. 4 2014 2014 Healthcare & Bioscience Economic Impact Impact Study Study San San Antonio, Antonio, Texas Texas 5

The Healthcare and Bioscience Industry generated over 41,000 net new jobs in the last decade. In 2013, a total of 146,190 San Antonians were employed in the portion of the Healthcare and Bioscience Industry represented in the traditional data. This represents nearly one-sixth of the total San Antonio civilian workforce. The comprehensive total of 164,537 includes more than 18,000 uniformed military personnel and employees of the UT Health Science Center who are not counted in the Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) employment data, so the share of the total regional workforce employed in healthcare and bioscience is likely in excess of 18%. Using the comprehensive estimates, 68% of these employees were involved in the direct provision of health and medical services; the remaining 32% were employed in related industries. IMPACT ON THE WORKFORCE Nearly one in six San Antonio employees works in healthcare and bioscience. Considering the traditional estimates for a comparison over time, the 146,190 employees in the narrower definition of the industry represent a 5.6% increase over the 2011 level, and a 15.4% increase since 2009. The industry generated 7,761 net new jobs since 2011. Looking at the decade as a whole, the industry added 41,567 net new jobs, an increase of 40%. Employment in Related Industries and Services both grew at the same (40%) rate, demonstrating balanced growth over the period. 8 2014 Healthcare & Bioscience Economic Impact Study San San Antonio, Texas 9
San Antonio has been the Home of Army Medicine since 1947 and is now the Home of Military Medicine with the Medical Education & Training Campus (METC), which along with the Army Medical Department Center & School, annually train more healthcare professionals than any organization in the world. 10 2014 Healthcare & Bioscience Economic Impact Study San San Antonio, Texas 11
Payroll in the Healthcare and Bioscience Industry grew 73% over the past decade. A GROWING ANNUAL PAYROLL The total annual payroll in healthcare and bioscience (by the comprehensive estimate) was $7.6 billion in 2013, an 18% increase over 2009. Looking at the traditional definition of the industry, payroll grew by 73% over the decade. 12 2014 Healthcare & Bioscience Economic Impact Study San San Antonio, Texas 13
SALARIES ABOVE AVERAGE Using the comprehensive estimates, individuals employed in the Healthcare and Bioscience Industry earned, on average, $46,333 in 2013. This is almost 7% above the 2013 average of $43,450 for all workers in San Antonio. Annual incomes of workers in the Health Services sector averaged $48,467. The average salary for the Related Industries sector was $41,751. Healthcare and bioscience salaries were nearly 7% above the average annual salary for San Antonio. These figures include only direct wage payments. Total compensation, which includes benefits, would be considerably higher. In interpreting these averages, it is important to note that employees in the healthcare and bioscience sector include not only well-paid healthcare providers and scientists but also support staff of various types. Also, since the employment figures include both full-time and part-time employees, the average salary reported here is no doubt lower than that received by a typical full-time employee. This margin of difference has persisted over at least two decades, though it is more pronounced when the highly-paid faculty at the UT Health Science Center and the military medical installations are added to derive the comprehensive estimates. Still, even by the traditional estimates, salaries in the industry have stayed well above the San Antonio average. 14 2014 Healthcare & Bioscience Economic Impact Study San San Antonio, Texas 15

IMPACT OF HEALTH SERVICES & RELATED INDUSTRIES The Healthcare and Bioscience Industry is both large and diverse. It includes a wide variety of direct healthcare services, as well as industries related to the provision of health and medical care. The overall size or impact of the Health Services sector has always been larger than the Related Industries sector, and that difference remains when the comprehensive definition of the industry is used. Health Services represent about 56% of the total economic impact of the industry in San Antonio, but both sectors have experienced healthy growth in the past two decades, more than doubling since 2003 and more than quadrupling since 1993. 18 2014 Healthcare & Bioscience Economic Impact Study San San Antonio, Texas 19
In 10 years, the economic impact of hospitals has increased by 130% and that of physicians has jumped by 95%. HEALTH SERVICES Includes a wide range of healthcare professionals and businesses providing direct care to patients. Within this sector, there are five major groups: hospitals; physicians; ambulatory and other services, including laboratories; nursing and home health services providers; and other providers of health services (dentists, therapists, optometrists, chiropractors and others). In San Antonio, this sector includes both civilian and military medicine, a Veterans Administration medical center and a variety of governmental, for-profit and non-profit operations and facilities. Physicians and hospitals, the two largest provider groups, have consistently made a substantial contribution to the San Antonio economy. This remains the case when the comprehensive definition of the industry is used. 20 2014 2014 Healthcare & Bioscience Economic Impact Impact Study Study San San Antonio, Antonio, Texas Texas 21
RELATED INDUSTRIES Incorporates a variety of entities that support and complement the direct provision of healthcare services. These industry sectors include health insurance carriers, pharmaceutical companies, medical equipment producers and manufacturers, civilian and military medical education, biomedical research organizations, residential care and social service providers, and a variety of related endeavors. The Education and Research sector is buoyed considerably by the inclusion in the comprehensive estimate of more than 18,000 UT Health Science Center San Antonio and military medical training employees absent from the TWC data used for the traditional estimates. Over time, both the Insurance and the Social Services/Residential Care sectors have shown steady growth. This reflects rising healthcare costs over the period as well as San Antonio s population growth. 22 2014 Healthcare & Bioscience Economic Impact Study San San Antonio, Texas 23

The data is aggregated by the TWC into the lines of business defined by the North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) coding framework. It represents essentially a 100% sample of all the businesses with employees in each NAICS subcode. The specific subcodes included in this study are listed above. They cover both the healthcare and related industry segments in great detail. Center and the military presence in San Antonio s medical industry was derived from data supplied by these two entities from their own financial reports. Since these data are compiled for a different purpose than that reported to the TWC, using different procedures, the additional contributions attributed to these activities must be understood as approximations. Still, their impact is so great that it would be a significant understatement to exclude them.
