Piedmont Medical Center first gained approval to build a hospital in Fort Mill, S.C., a suburb of Charlotte, N.C., in 2006. But, the medical center faced legal challenges from several hospital systems, including Charlotte, N.C.-Atrium and Winston-Salem, N.C.-based Novant Health.
Atrium Health also was seeking approval to build a hospital in Fort Mill, according to the report.
Novant later dropped its legal challenge, and in 2019, the Supreme Court of South Carolina denied an appeal from Atrium to block construction of Piedmont’s Fort Mill hospital.
Plans for Piedmont’s Fort Mill hospital include building a 200,000-square-foot, 100-bed hospital. The hospital will have a three-story bed tower and helipad.
