McLaren still battling to build new hospital in MI

For years, Flint-based McLaren Health Care has lost battle after battle in its quest to build a new $300 million hospital in this northern Oakland County community – but it hasn't given up. Despite opposition at nearly every turn, McLaren is now turning to the state Legislature in its push to move 200 beds from its Pontiac hospital to a new hospital it hopes to build just south of Clarkston – a move that McLaren says will improve hospital access to a growing population.
