The new hospital will house 264 private rooms capable of converting to intensive care, state-of-the-art operating rooms, advanced imaging, and high-level, specialty care services.
The D. Dan and Betty Kahn Health Care Pavilion at University of Michigan Health will be the name of the new Michigan Medicine hospital currently under construction. The 12-story hospital will house 264 private rooms, state-of-the-art operating rooms, advanced imaging and high-level, specialty care services for neurology, neurosurgery, otolaryngology, oral maxillofacial surgery, ortho spine, cardiovascular medicine, cardiac surgery, vascular surgery and thoracic surgery patients. Locating these services together will enable healthcare providers to quickly respond to complex cases and deliver state-of-the-art treatments.
The new adult inpatient facility is scheduled to open for patient care in the fall of 2025. Read the December 8, 2022 news release announcing the hospital's new name.
At 690,000-gross-square-feet, the building will provide more access to care for adult patients at Michigan Medicine. The new adult inpatient hospital will also allow the relocation of 110 beds currently in semi-private rooms at University Hospital to the new hospital, which will improve patient safety, quality and experience, while creating space for family members to participate in their loved one’s care, healing and recovery. In total, the project will add 154 new beds to the medical campus.
With the Pavilion, Michigan will have one of the most state-of-the-art hospitals in the country — that also demonstrates environmental and social responsibility. The D. Dan and Betty Kahn Health Care Pavilion will be a game changer for Michigan and our patients, as well as the faculty, staff and learners who are committed to caring for them.

The building is being constructed adjacent to the Frankel Cardiovascular Center, with plans for bridge and tunnel connections to existing inpatient care facilities.
The new hospital was designed with lean principles for efficiency of flow and responsiveness to user needs. It will include:
- Family spaces throughout and space for loved ones to visit in each patient room.
- Centralized collaboration spaces in each patient area to enhance continuity of care.
- Two floors with 20 operating rooms built with the latest technology, many larger than Michigan Medicine’s current ORs and three interventional radiology suites
- Patient rooms that allow for more complex care, including capability for all spaces to support intensive care.
