The State Board of Health Facilities and services Review Board also turned down the proposal of Centegra to locate a new hospital on the east side of Haligus Road between Algonquin Road and Reed Road in Huntley.
The Board report on this facility included three State Board Standards Not Met including,
Planning Area Need –“The applicants have requested beds in excess of the calculated need and there are existing facilities in the planning area operating below target occupancy.”
Unnecessary Duplication of Service/Maldistribution—There are existing faculties within 30 minutes operating below the State Board’s target occupancy.
Clinical service areas other than categories of services—“The proposed clinical services other than categories of service will impact other area providers that are not operating at target occupancy.”
This was the second proposal being considered today by the Board. The first was the proposal of Mercy Hospital for locating a hospital in Crystal Lake .
