Replacement hospital planned after tornado

Norman Regional Health System will build a $29 million medical facility to replace the Moore Medical Center


Norman Regional Health System is planning a $29 million medical facility to replace the Moore Medical Center hospital, which was destroyed in the May 2013 tornado in Moore, Okla., according to an article on the Medical Construction & Design website.

The new medical facility will include full emergency services, outpatient diagnostic imaging, physical medicine, laboratory services, physician offices and community education and meeting space.

New Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) guidelines required Norman Regional to change the way its facilities were branded so they would better fall in line with their CMS license name, Norman Regional. As part of this change, the new medical facility in Moore will be called Norman Regional Moore.
