The $300 million facility in Hampden Township, Pa., will include 108-beds, an 18-bay emergency department, an intensive care unit, a maternity unit with level 2 neonatal intensive care and operating rooms. 

Four hundred employees are expected to start at the hospital when it opens, with that number growing to about 1,000 in a few years, according to Penn Live.

At Becker's 4th Annual CEO + CFO Roundtable, taking place November 2–5 in Chicago, more than 1,500 hospital and health system executives tackle decisions that determine whether organizations thrive or merely survive: protecting margins under cost pressure, choosing where to grow, renegotiating payer relationships, stabilizing the workforce and proving real ROI on technology. This is where leaders work through them together, face-to-face. Apply for complimentary registration now.
