“We understand that the surgical and anesthetic needs of neonates, infants, children and adolescents are absolutely unique and quite different than those for adults,” said Charles Schleien, MD, senior vice president and chair of pediatric services at Northwell Health, which owns Cohen Children’s. “The importance of this pediatric surgical operating complex cannot be overstated.”

The complex will focus on cardiothoracic, neurologic and orthopedic procedures, along with general surgery. It plans to serve over 8,000 pediatric patients per year and lower wait times. 

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
