Rex Healthcare gets OK to build outpatient center

Raleigh News & Observer, August 8, 2008

Raleigh, NC-based Rex Healthcare has received permission from state regulators to build a new, three-story outpatient care center across from its main campus. The center will have almost 130,000 square feet of space for outpatient services, and a separate building will have 85,000 square feet for medical offices. Rex officials told state regulators that the building was needed to reduce congestion on the main campus. Among the services Rex will move are: eight existing operating rooms and four existing procedure rooms, most of its diagnostic imaging facilities and one MRI scanner, and rehab services, including physical, occupational and speech therapy.
