Boston-based Mass General Brigham is moving forward with as much as $2 billion in capital projects in Massachusetts and New Hampshire, according to filings with the Massachusetts Department of Health cited by the Boston Business Journal.
The planned projects, which would take place over the next several years, include a $1 billion building at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, a $250 million addition to Brigham and Women's Faulkner Hospital and a $400 million project to open four outpatient centers in New Hampshire and Massachusetts, according to the report.
