The first phase of the development will include a 150-bed hospital providing orthopedics, neurosurgery, cardiovascular medicine and women’s services, a multidisciplinary medical office building, and an ambulatory surgery center, according to a Feb. 21 news release from UF Health.
The project is expected to initially create 2,000 new jobs in the St. Johns and Jacksonville, Fla., areas and 12,000 total jobs over time.
The ASC will be focused on orthopedics and other surgical services, the release said.
At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
