Advocate Health plans to invest $1bn in Chicago's South Side, aiming to replace an outdated hospital with a smaller facility focused on primary care.
With a 30-year life expectancy gap between the North and South Side, Advocate aims to enhance urgent care access in this predominantly Black neighborhood.
The new 52-bed facility, surrounded by green space, will replace Trinity Hospital’s 263 beds, addressing community needs and promoting health equity.
After scrutiny over debt practices, Advocate is committed to reform by pre-qualifying low-income patients for financial aid and prioritizing health equity.
