CHS will be the primary health care providers on these units and the NYC Department of Correction will provide security and custody management.</p><p></p><p><br>
The OTxHU at NYC Health + Hospitals/Bellevue in Manhattan will be the first of this unique, groundbreaking project to open with a planned completion date as early as the end of 2024.
