Lakeway is making headlines for a recent acquisition that Lake Travis residents should be excited about.
Baylor Scott & White Health, which currently operates nearly 50 hospitals in Texas, signed an agreement to purchase Lakeway Regional Medical Center (LRMC). If all goes well, expectations are that LRMC will be renamed Baylor Scott & White Medical Center Lakeway by the end of the summer.
The new name isn’t short and sweet — BSWMCL?! What a mouthful! — but the transition is a step in the right direction.
A big and well-respected name like Baylor Scott & White attracts (and retains) more collaboration with Central Texas providers, which means a stronger offering of medical services (from trauma to specialty), physicians, surgeons, staff as well as improved medical resources.
