Sioux Falls, S.D.-based Avera Heart Hospital has broken ground on a $21.5 million addition.
The 35,000-square-foot expansion will house diagnostic imaging services and administrative space, clearing space for services at North Central Heart, a specialty clinic attached to the hospital, according to a Nov. 4 news release from Avera.
North Central Heart and Avera is staffed by 22 cardiologists and is adding more providers.
The three-story addition marks the largest construction project at the heart hospital since being built in 2001.
Avera leaders expect the expansion to be completed next winter, the release said.
