Vista plan for Lindenhurst to be considered

The Illinois Health Facilities and Services Review Board on Wednesday is scheduled to decide the merits of building the $131 million Vista Medical Center Lindenhurst. The board in March denied the proposal for a 132-bed hospital at Grand Avenue and Deep Lake Road, in part saying it was not needed. Vista since has modified its application to address the board’s concerns. Opponents claim a new hospital will not improve access to services in Lake County. The board meets at 10 a.m. at the Bolingbrook Golf Club, 2001 Rodeo Drive, Bolingbrook. Visit www.hfsrb.illinois.gov for more.
