University Hospitals has revealed details of a $236 million Phase 2 expansion for its Ahuja Medical Center that will open in 2023 and create an estimated 1,000 jobs. A 216,000-square-foot hospital tower addition and a 78,000-square-foot sports medicine complex will expand the medical center in Beachwood by more than 68%, UH said in a news release on Tuesday, March 16. A UH spokeswoman said in an email that Ahuja has 1,087 employees at present, so the expansion will roughly double the medical center's headcount. (The current Ahuja headcount rises to about 1,300 when including all employees and physicians that have multiple work locations within UH, the spokeswoman said.)
