The Tallahassee office completed a three–week trial and obtained a favorable recommended order of approval on behalf of a client for a new satellite hospital to be established in the rapidly developing area of southeastern Hillsborough County. The hospital project has strong support from the community, including the Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners and Hillsborough County Fire Rescue, but is opposed by various hospital competitors. Final approval of the hospital project will dramatically improve access to emergency and general acute care services and will establish the first not–for–profit acute care provider in the southeastern Hillsborough County region.
