2022 Annual Impact Report

NOVEMBER Medical Arts Pavilion brings expanded care to Atlantic City

AtlantiCare brought out the ceremonial scissors to mark the opening of its Medical Arts Pavilion November 15, 2022.

The $38.3 million facility stands just a few steps away on Ohio Avenue from where AtlantiCare opened in 1898 as Atlantic City Hospital. All- new construction is the new home to AtlantiCare’s Medical Education Program, which includes residency programs in family medicine, internal medicine, pharmacy, and psychiatry. This state-of-the-art facility is already increasing the programs’ visibility, which has seen an uptick in native-New Jersey applicants, says Jim Kilmer, Vice President & CAO for AtlantiCare - Atlantic City Campus. The facility has allowed AtlantiCare’s Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) Pediatrics and Family Medicine teaching clinics to

expand, increasing access to care for underserved populations and those facing chronic health conditions. It also houses AtlantiCare’s newly expanded Maternal Fetal Medicine, Family Planning, and Safe Beginnings programs, aimed at increasing services and providing comprehensive care to mothers, babies, and families in Atlantic City. Also, planning for the changing needs of our community, we have allotted additional space for dialysis and outpatient neuro services, set to relocate in summer 2023. AtlantiCare’s FQHC will also open a dental clinic for patients of all ages in fall 2023. “We’re off and running full tilt,” says Kilmer. “It’s a huge project and it continues to grow. We are excited about the opportunities to enhance access to quality care for the Atlantic City community.”
