I would suggest to sit down and create it yourself with the help of the other parties involved collaborate with everyone. This way when someone like you ask for something like this you can give it to them.
As previously mentioned all hospitals are not the same especially when it comes to the MEP work.
Start with the site work, then the footers, then building structure, then the roof, then the skin, then concentrate on fitting out of the building for the interior work including any special MEP systems then any owner furnished materials.
some of the information that you are asking for is proprietary
Yes, several hospitals under my belt and like said in the other posts the MEP (Mechanical Electrical Plan) is one of the toughest in the industry. There are so many vairances, depending on the design firm, the region (some areas may have a high incidence of tuberculosis and then require UV treatment of all air movement) and other varying details. You will need the specifications to look at all sections of the MasterFormat to see everything that should be addressed.

First off, you can not rely on another project's programme, the best thing you can do is to read all the working documents specially the scope of works, BoQ, Milestones, key dates, access dates, Particular Specifications and Contract.
As Mike said, the complicated part is the MEP works because of the numerous services that needs to be installed. Normally, the integrated MEP working drawings are not yet done at the start of the project, hence, you need to assume the most logical sequence of works to get your programme approved. List down all the MEP services, and get a sequence and cross section arrangement agreed with the MEP construction team. Normally the gravity pipes (plumbing) comes first simply because you can not divert them when there is a clash. Find out which ones are embeded in the structure (normally conduits for Electrical and ELV system), this can be scheduled as part of the structure. The HVAC system in a hospital is also complicated. The remaining services should be installed according to elevations in your agreed sequence and cross section.
Other important interface issues you need to consider, you need a water tight building or at least several floors before you can start your MEP works.

But it looks like a start to me.

Hi Dura
If you have never planned a hospital before then you are facing a big problem - they are the most complex structures - particularly in respect of MEP.
You can forget 1st Fix - 2nd Fix etc as there are at least 4 interfaces between as many as 30 services.
If you get the MEP right then the structure will fit in around it.
Best regards
Mike T.
