The medical office building was part of Memorial Hospital’s original expansion but was delayed until now for financial reasons. The operational cost difference between the new and old offices is expected to save the hospital approximately $30,000 per year. 

Memorial’s $5 million dementia complex project will create two 9,000-square-foot houses for family-style living. The construction and in-house programming at the facilities will cater to the particular needs of dementia patients. There is already a waiting list for residents, according to the report. 

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.
