CHI Memorial has taken the next step toward making its new hospital in North Georgia a reality, The Chattanoogan reports.
Hospital leaders gave notice to the Georgia Department of Community Health that they will file their Certificate of Need in December to build a replacement hospital in Ringgold, Georgia.
The current facility is approaching 70 years old, with some portions of the hospital dating back to 1904.
CHI Memorial’s formal Letter of Intent outlines details of the project, including a projected total investment of more than $130 million.
A bond issue from Catoosa County, GA will support the funding for the new hospital. Groundbreaking is scheduled to take place early summer of 2022, with a targeted completion date of mid-2024. Read more.
