<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Did you know
that 60% of Prince George’s County residents currently leave the county for
their healthcare? Between the cost to families of leaving the county for their
health care needs, the loss of local healthcare jobs, and the economic engine a
healthcare hub could provide within the county, officials agree: it’s time to
bring a new Regional Medical Center to Prince George’s County. Right now, the
state, county and private healthcare providers are working to bring a new $600
million facility to the county.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">But where
should the medical center be located and how should it be designed? A
well-located hospital center and mixed-use design could not only provide better
healthcare, but also deliver a two-for-one economic engine. Locating the
medical center at a Metro station – and Prince George’s has many Metro stations
crying out for new development – multiplies the possibilities for easy access
and economic growth. Located at a Metro stop, doctors and staff would have
easier commutes to work. Patients and visitors would also have better
transportation options with a Metro-oriented and centrally-located hospital
closer to more homes. <br>
<br>
Given these choices, Prince George’s County faces an important decision as it
determines whether or not to use one of the county’s 15 Metrorail stations in
addressing the need for an accessible medical center. This new development
provides the region an opportunity to break out of the conventional suburban
hospital model and redefine the possibilities for a transit-oriented medical
center and district. <br>
<br>
Join us on July 18th as our speakers discuss the many opportunities that
building a medical center at a Metrorail station provides and how this center
can be designed to offer the most competitive facility in the region.</span></p>
