The Banner-University Medical Center Tucson is planning a three-year, $500 million expansion, according to an article on the Arizona Daily Star website.
Plans include a new entrance anchored by a hospital tower that will be nearly 700,000 square feet. Construction, which will include demolishing nine buildings on the north side of the campus, is to begin next year pending approval by the city of Tucson.
A new $80 million outpatient clinic on Tucson’s north side is also planned.
The expansion anticipates a future when more health care will be done on an outpatient basis and only the sickest patients will be hospitalized, the article said.
