ATLANTA (AP) — Emory University says it has changed the name of Emory Crawford Long Hospital to Emory University Hospital Midtown.
Emory University president James Wagner said Friday it will make the hospital more clearly affiliated with Emory in the public eye.
The hospital is a 511-bed acute-care teaching facility. It was founded in 1908.
Emory is in the midst of a major project to modernize its medical facilities at its main campus and the Crawford Long site. The estimated cost of the project is $1.5 billion.
