In addition, the facility will support general internal medicine, a pillar of extraordinary primary care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNebraska Medicine is committed to improving access to primary care and highly sought-after specialty care,\u201d said Michael Ash, MD, Nebraska Medicine CEO. \u201cWe know there is an urgent need for behavioral health services in the community. This project is a meaningful step toward expanding our world-class care and supporting those who rely on us.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Construction of the $99.3 million project, which is partially funded by the generous donor community, is expected to be completed in the summer of 2027.
