Brown and Prince George’s County Executive Rushern Baker were joined by leadership from the University of Maryland Medical System, Dimensions Health Care, University of Maryland School of Public Health and other state and county health officials to provide an update on the partnership agreement signed in 2011 to develop a comprehensive plan for strengthening health care in Prince George’s County.
Over the past year, the coalition has worked to identify the scope of need for a plan to construct a new regional medical center by 2017, improve existing health services, increase access to primary care, enhance the County's overall health infrastructure, and ensure a stable and reliable health care system for Prince George's County and Southern Maryland. Today, the coalition announced that they have completed step one of the agreement signed last year and are proceeding to step two: determining a final financial analysis, financing, and site selection for a new regional medical center. The coalition also released the Prince George’s County Public Health Impact Study, a first of its kind analysis of health care in the county conducted by the University of Maryland School of Public Health.
