Scripps Health said it plans to move forward with the development of a new medical center campus in San Marcos. The Scripps San Marcos Medical Center campus will be located on a 13-acre site south of state Route 78 near Twin Oaks Valley Parkway and will be built in two phases, a comprehensive ambulatory facility and an acute care hospital.
The project is estimated to cost about $1.2 billion, the San Diego Union-Tribune reported. “We acquired the San Marcos property 35 years ago,” said Chris Van Gorder, president and CEO of Scripps Health, “but it wasn’t the right time to build. Our patient population in the area has since grown to the point that it made sense for us to move forward.”
For more than four years, Scripps management has worked to develop a master plan for the site and conducting the necessary studies for board approval. Last week, the Scripps Health Board of Trustees approved the facility plans for North San Diego County, including endorsing development in San Marcos.
