Oakland, Calif.
Alta Bates Summit Medical Center, a Sutter Health affiliate, is planning to construct a 350-bed hospital in Oakland. With a potential construction cost of over $600 million, the facility would replace inpatient space at Alta Bates Summit Medical Centers in Berkeley and Oakland and would be constructed to meet California's state seismic safety standards that take effect in 2013. Groundbreaking is expected to commence on the facility in approximately three years. The project will include a parking garage with space for up to 1,000 cars and an adjacent medical office building.
