Welcome

The Albert Einstein Healthcare Network (AEHN) and the Montgomery Hospital Medical Center (MHMC) welcome you to movinghealthcareforward.org. This website provides up-to-date information about the collaboration between our two hospitals, both in terms of our clinical activities as well as the planning of a new state-of-the-art medical center that will serve the communities of central Montgomery County and become a model for compassionate, advanced patient care.

Moving Healthcare Forward

AEHN and MHMC have joined together to improve our patients’ access to advanced medical services in their own communities. Our Partnership is a direct response to the community’s clear need for advanced medical services such as intensive care for infants, neurosurgery, and advanced cardiac and cancer care services. Currently, more than 60% of central Montgomery County residents leave the area when they require hospital care, traveling 25 minutes to an hour to receive medical service.

After a careful search for a site to best serve our communities, we have entered into an agreement to purchase property on Germantown Pike in East Norriton that is ideally situated for the beautiful medical center campus we are planning.  As the design of the medical center has progressed, we have been working with the staff of East Norriton Township.  On December 23rd, the East Norriton Board of Supervisors approved our preliminary land development application after being reviewed by the East Norriton Planning Commission and the Shade Tree Commission.  The Board of Supervisors preliminary approval allowed us to file our final land development application with the East Norriton Township on January 16th.  We are hopeful that the Township will review the application this spring.

Rich Montalbano, the project executive for our new medical center initiative, is publishing regular updates regarding the progress of the new hospital, and will be happy to hear from you if you have questions or suggestions. We encourage you to click here for Rich’s latest posting.

Thank you for visiting our website. We’re delighted to be working with you to move healthcare forward in central Montgomery County.
