30. University of Missouri Health System: University Hospital – Columbia, Missouri



The University of Missouri Health Care network’s flagship institution, the University Hospital, underwent a major $203 million facelift between 2009 and 2013. Consisting of eight floors, the new tower houses the Ellis Fischel Cancer Center and patient care facility. This ultramodern cancer center boasts innovative, time saving “smart rooms,” which automatically record and wirelessly convey patients’ vitals and additional information to the system’s electronic medical databanks. On top of this, the center offers advanced imaging services such as 3D mammography and features “intraoperative teleconferencing technology,” which lets operating doctors talk with pathologists without leaving the room. The patient care tower also uses a ROBOT-Rx drug-dispensing device capable of supplying as many as 3,000 doses a day.

28. Upper River Valley Hospital – New Brunswick, Canada



The Upper River Valley Hospital in New Brunswick, Canada officially opened its doors in November 2007. The futuristic facility was set up in place of New Brunswick hospitals the Carleton Memorial and the Northern Carleton. Impressively, Upper River Valley is Canada’s first LEED-approved all-inclusive hospital. Adding to its eco credentials, the hospital is designed to be fully paperless, which means that medical personnel are able to manage patient data electronically. Outlining its advantages, then-health minister Michael Murphy said, “This means instant access to patient information to provide quicker care in an emergency, and an ability to immediately share information and consult with other health care providers outside the hospital.” The Upper River Valley Hospital – which cost $85 million to complete – is run by Canadian health authority the Horizon Health Network.
