Access
to quality health care, health promotion and disease prevention are priority
concerns for the Prince George’s County Council, in its role as the Board of
Health, and for the residents we represent.
The
University of Maryland Medical System acquisition of Dimensions Healthcare, a
big step toward addressing those priority concerns, is a significant milestone
in the historic journey toward healthcare transformation in Prince George’s
County.
Over
the last six years, stakeholders have worked jointly in a strong and unique
collaboration, to address the healthcare needs of residents, and create a
world-class health system that also positively impacts our economy.
We
will continue this work through the groundbreaking scheduled in November, and
the exciting grand opening of the new University of Maryland Capital Regional
Health System in 2021.
