HCA opens new hospital in north Texas

The 55-bed Fort Worth, Texas-based Medical Center Alliance saw its first patients last week in a brand new, $90 million facility.

The new hospital, part of Nashville, Tenn.-based Hospital Corporation of America, expands on what was a freestanding emergency department since 2011. It has been under construction since late 2013, after HCA decided to meet the demands of the growing local population with a new full-service hospital.

The hospital is larger than originally anticipated by 25 beds. It includes a private, eight-suite NICU, 17 postpartum suites, 10 labor and delivery rooms, two OR suites in women's services, four OR suites with robotic surgery equipment, an advanced catheterization laboratory and a Level IV emergency department.

The hospital has 200 physicians on staff.
