Is there an approximate cost per square foot for new construction when estimating the cost of a hospital?

There are too many variables to come up with a single cost per square foot. Factors include; region, labor environment, type of construction, type of material, licensing & code restrictions, renovation vs. new construction, etc. to name a few. To assist you, here is a tool you can use to come up with a generic cost per square foot based on your location with everything else being equal: http://www.reedfirstsource.com/Means/index.asp Good luck.
