June 27, 2022 – Select Medical Holdings Corporation has created a joint venture (JV) with Inova Health System for a critical illness recovery facility in Northern Virginia.
The JV is expected to own and operate the hospital, which will be located within the Inova Mount Vernon Hospital.
The specialty hospital is expected to have 32 beds and commence operations in the first half of next year. The JV will be responsible for providing world-class inpatient post-acute services. Following the opening of the new facility, patients from all five Inova hospitals, who don’t require intensive care services, will be transferred to the new critical illness recovery hospital.
The JV is expected to enable not-for-profit Inova Health System to expand its continuum of care. The new hospital will be the first of its kind in the region.
