The health system had been planning the campus for years but put the project on hold in 2019 and was delayed longer by the COVID-19 pandemic. HealthParners has tapped a design and engineering partner for the project. Currently, the health system has a 97-bed hospital in nearby Lakeview.
Lakeview Hospital President Brandi Lunneborg said that the new project is needed to meet increased patient volume since the COVID-19 pandemic. The hospital is set to open in late 2027 or early 2028.
