The Hoover (Ala.) Health Care Authority is close to selecting an operator for the outpatient surgery center planned in the region.

The authority received certificate-of-need approval in September 2024 but delayed progress after its initial request for proposals didn’t yield the right fit, according to a Sept. 25 Hoover Sun report. 

Authority members recently interviewed two finalists and expect to meet with a third group this week before making a final decision.

The certificate of need review board has given the authority until Nov. 3 to submit paperwork identifying the operator.
