## Resource

Renown Health is bringing back its long-planned Sparks medical campus — now a 127,000-square-foot ambulatory care center with 4 same-day surgery rooms and 134 exam rooms — thanks to a powerhouse partnership with Kaiser Permanente. Kaiser’s recent stake in Renown’s insurance arm, now rebranded Kaiser Permanente Nevada, unlocks primary care in Reno-Sparks, while Renown handles specialty and hospital services. The facility, set to open soon with Kaiser leasing space inside, will dramatically boost local access to care — Mayor Ed Lawson calls it a “quality of life changer.” Dr. Brian Erling credits the alliance as the key to restarting the project, launching Renown’s 10-year expansion. Permits are moving fast — groundbreaking could be weeks away. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
