The new suite will provide advanced treatments to patients and will use the most up-to-date medical equipment, according to an July 31 news release. 

The northwest Arkansas community loses approximately $950 million annually as patients leave  for medical services and specialty care. The new hospital expansions will help reverse that trend, the release said. 

 Additional expansion projects will be announced at a later date.

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.
