Michigan Medicine To Restart $920 Million Hospital Project

Citing financial loss and COVID-19 pandemic, system delayed project in May 2020

By Dan Hounsell


From new facilities to expansions of existing facilities, the nation’s healthcare systems continue to emerge from the depths of the COVID-19 pandemic and restarting delayed projects.

In Michigan, Ann Arbor-based Michigan Medicine will start construction on its $920 million hospital in the coming months, after delaying the project last year amid the COVID-19 pandemic, according to Becker’s Hospital Review.

Michigan Medicine said its planning team has resumed design work on the facility. The 12-story, 690,000-square-foot hospital is expected to house 264 private rooms, 20 operating rooms and three interventional radiology suites. Citing a financial loss exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, the academic health system delayed the project in May 2020.

With the delay, the new hospital is slated to open in the fall of 2025.
