Carmen asked me Monday if anything new has come up about the new Fort Mill Hospital. I had not heard anything so I did some online research. It seems back in May 2006 Piedmont Medical Center was awarded a certificate by the S.C. Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC) to build a 221,985-square-foot, 100 bed hospital called Fort Mill Medical Center on a 40-acre site at the corner of Hwy. 160 West and Hwy. 21. The process allows for an appeal process that was estimated to take 2 years to resolve. I have not been able to find on line any updates on the timing or status of the hospital. Here are a couple links to Fort Mill Times 2006 articles by Jonathan Allen about the Fort Mill hospital.
