Press release from HCA healthcare NC Division/Mission Health:

Mission Health is pleased to announce our recent Certificate of Need approval for two new ERs to serve the western North Carolina area, both as departments of Mission Hospital. One will be located near the corner of Hendersonville Road (US 25) and Airport Road in South Asheville and the other will be to the west of Asheville, towards Candler.

  • 12 patient rooms
  • On-site diagnostic imaging (CT, x-ray, ultrasound) and clinical laboratory services
  • Board-certified emergency physicians  and ACLS-trained emergency nursing staff
  • Will comply with the federal Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA) regulations as well as appropriate state regulations

Approximate date for openings is projected to be late 2023.
