2. Plans also call for construction of a 180-space parking garage and a 165-space surface lot.
3. AHN’s systemwide expansion includes establishing four neighborhood hospitals and renovating its existing Pennsylvania facilities.
4. AHN said the additional hospitals are needed to mitigate any lapses in access to medical care as a consent decree expires in June 2019. The consent decree allowed Highmark Health customers to continue using Pittsburgh-based UMPC facilities until next June. Highmark owns AHN.
