VDH staff initially wanted to deny new Chesterfield HCA hospital. Why did the commissioner approve it?
Staff at the Virginia Department of Health initially recommended denying HCA Healthcare's request for a new hospital in Chesterfield County, citing no demonstrated need and hindering competition. However, State Health Commission Dr. Cameron Webb ultimately approved the project, along with two others, following an adjudication officer's recommendation, which highlighted anticipated population growth and improved access to care in the area. This decision will significantly increase bed capacity in Chesterfield County with new facilities from Bon Secours, VCU Health, and HCA Healthcare.
