Michigan Medicine, the academic medical arm of the University of Michigan, will build a new $920-million, 12-story hospital on its Ann Arbor medical campus.
The 690,000-square-foot adult hospital building will house264 private rooms capable of converting to intensive care, a state-of-the-art neurological and neurosurgical center, high-level specialty care services for cardiovascular and thoracic patients, along with advanced imaging, according to a news release from the school.

We are proud to be at the forefront of innovation with a new hospital that will support the extraordinary work of our faculty, nurses and other providers and our research community, said Marschall Runge, executive vice president of medical affairs, CEO of Michigan Medicine and dean of the Medical School. Its an investment in Michigan Medicines mission of advancing health to serve Michigan and the world.
The current adult hospital routinely runs at 90% capacity.
The addition is crucial for our state, our university, and the millions of people who rely on us for quality advanced health care," U-M President Mark Schlissel said.
Two floors of the hospital will each have20 operating rooms built with the latest technology, many larger than Michigan Medicines current ORs, and three interventional radiology suites.

The new adult inpatient hospital will allow the relocation of 110 beds currently in semiprivate rooms at University Hospital to the new hospital. As a result, all Michigan Medicine inpatient beds will be single, private rooms, said David Spahlinger, president of the U-M Health System, the clinical arm of Michigan Medicine.
Private rooms are important for the quality of our patient and family member experience, and is a proven factor in reducing hospital-acquired infections, Spahlinger said.
After construction of the new rooms and relocation of the existing beds, the project will add a total of 154 new beds to the Medical Campus.
The building will be constructed adjacent to the Samuel and Jean Frankel Cardiovascular Center, with plans for bridge and tunnel connections to existing inpatient care facilities.
An average of 370 on-site construction jobs is projected and the preliminary estimate of new full-time jobs once the hospital opens is 1,600, the school said.
