Integrated health system Virginia Mason Franciscan Health (Tacoma, Wash., and Seattle) and Intuitive Health (Dallas) announced plans to develop four hybrid emergency department (ED) and urgent care centers in the Puget Sound region in Washington state over the next four years.
The hybrid ED/urgent care centers will feature on-site lab equipment and a radiology suite with X-ray and multislice CT scanners.
Construction on the first location is scheduled to begin later this year in Seattle.
