Of 12 hospitals surveyed statewide in the UCHealth system, Memorial Hospital Central in Colorado Springs saw the second-highest jump over the past three months of new patients who appear to be immigrants, according to data UCHealth released Wednesday.
“Memorial Hospital Central has had the second-greatest impact among UCHealth hospitals, next to University of Colorado Hospital (in Aurora),” said Dan Weaver, system spokesman.
“In general, UCHealth and our hospitals see all patients — we will take care of anyone who comes to our hospitals or emergency departments,” he said.
