Marshfield Clinic Health System to build state-of-the-art hospital in Minocqua

​​​​January 25, 2017

Marshfield Clinic Health System (MCHS) today announced it has submitted an application to build a state-of-the-art hospital in Minocqua attached to its current clinic and ambulatory surgery center. The new 72,000 square foot facility would continue to offer a full complement of services.  

"Meeting the health care needs of the community is our No. 1 priority and we've always believed that the Minocqua community would benefit from a truly integrated local health care system," said Dr. Susan Turney, MCHS CEO. "Combining our world-class outpatient care and insurance through Security Health Plan of Wisconsin with our own state-of-the-art, modern hospital puts us in an excellent position to make a real difference on care levels for patients in the region."

Turney added MCHS has had a growing presence in the Northwoods for nearly three decades, and that almost 60 physicians continue to provide care in Minocqua.

Building a facility with advanced computer technology, state-of-the-art equipment and better communications tools will deliver even better healthcare in the Northwoods, according to Dr. Narayana Murali, Marshfield Clinic's chief clinical strategy officer.

"So much of health care – from record-keeping to surgery scheduling to patient monitoring – is now based on digital technology. MCHS, through its Marshfield Clinic Information Services, already has award-winning technology in place. Combining our world-class physicians and staff with the seamless full integration of combined electronic medical records between our hospitals and clinics result in higher quality, better outcomes and a more positive experience for patients," Murali said.

The new hospital will be staffed by the Marshfield Clinic doctors, nurses and other associates local patients have come to know and trust. ​

MCHS will work closely with the City of Minocqua and Oneida County to approve the application. The Town of Minocqua Plan Commission will initially review the MCHS application Jan. 31.
