Salt Lake City-based Intermountain Health will transfer patients from its current Wheat Ridge, Colo., location to the new hospital, which is about 3.5 miles away. Intermountain expects to transfer about 180 patients to the new hospital on Aug. 3, beginning at 8 a.m.
Intermountain said the move to the hospital will expand access to emergency care in areas including trauma, stroke, heart attack, neurosurgery, interventional neurology and neuroscience critical care.
The total project cost is $680 million, a spokesperson for the system told Becker’s.
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.
