An advisory committee to the University of Missouri System Board of Curators approved a plan Nov. 10. It now will head to the full board of curators for a vote on Nov. 19. 

If approved, MU Health Care Children’s Hospital would be seven stories, span 323,4000 square feet and have 142 patient beds. It would also house a children’s cancer center, intensive care unit and labor and delivery suites. 

Construction is slated to end in summer of 2024.
