The University of California–Irvine (UCI) broke ground on a massive $1.3 billion medical complex on Nov. 16, marking the second full-scale hospital that UCI Health will have under its belt.
The complex, which was approved in January by the UC Board of Regents, will have a 144-bed, 350,000-square-foot acute care hospital with an emergency room, which will connect the UCI Health network throughout Orange County.
