History

[edit]

Since late July 2006, HCA Healthcare has tried to have a hospital built in Spring Hill, Tennessee.[1] The Tennessee Health Services and Development Agency approved the hospital and in response Maury Regional Hospital and William Medical Center filed lawsuits against the building of it. In early October 2007, a judge overturned the certificate of need.[2][3] In 2008, HCA Healthcare appealed to the Tennessee Health Services and Development Agency, which approved the building of the hospital a second time. And a second lawsuit by Maury Regional Hospital and William Medical Center was filed. In early September 2009, a judge ruled overturned the certificate of need a second time.[4][5] The reason why the hospitals opposed the building of TriStar Spring Hill it would raise the cost of healthcare and that they would lose money if it were built.[5]

In early June 2010, HCA Healthcare filed a certificate of need with the Tennessee Health Services and Development Agency. They wanted to build a $9 million, two-story, 34,000-square-foot-medical office building/ER on the site of its failed hospital.[6] In early December, the certificate of need was approved by the Tennessee Health Services and Development Agency.[7] By 2012, the plans had changed and the size was increased to a 49,851-square-foot, three-story medical office building/ER for $15 million. Construction officially broke ground in April 2012.[8] On February 18, 2013, TriStar Spring Hill ER opened its doors to patients at 7:00a.m.[9] Residents of Spring Hill when they need medical care that the ER does not provide they have to travel to Columbia, Tennessee or to Franklin, Tennessee.[10]

On April 15, 2024, TriStar Health announced that it wanted to build a hospital in Spring Hill, Tennessee with 68 beds for $250,000.[11][12][13] TriStar Health applied for a certificate of need with the Tennessee Facilities Commission for the hospital.[12][10][14] On June 27, the Tennessee Health Facilities Commission approved the construction of TriStar Spring Hill, by a vote of 6 to 2.[15][16]
