Beacon breaks ground

ELKHART, Ind. - Beacon Health System plans to begin construction June 12 on its new general home care building, according to an article from the South Bend Tribune. The 36,500-square-foot facility will house a Medicare- and Medicaid-licensed home health agency, a pharmacy, a retail store with HME, and a personal-services agency, the article noted. “Bringing all these offerings into one site will enhance our operational efficiency, which ultimately creates the best possible care experience for those we serve,” Greg Conrad, vice president of Beacon Health Ventures, said in the article. The building is scheduled to open early in 2014.
