Lutheran Health Network today announced plans for a $500 million, multi-year capital plan that includes upgrading hospitals and increasing access to health services.

The investment, Lutheran said in a news release, will "positively impact thousands of patients in the region who seek the highest level of healthcare."

Lutheran CEO Brian Bauer said the plan underscores the health system's commitment to top-quality care.

“We are going to improve and expand our hospitals and we're doing it with a focus on modernized designs that create the best possible experience for our patients – and a streamlined, effective environment for the physicians and employees who deliver care," Bauer said in a news release.
