Texas Health Resources to Build 60-Bed Hospital in McKinney, Collin County

Texas Health Resources plans to construct a new 60-bed hospital in McKinney, Collin County, and the system’s announcement says the facility will include a Women’s Services Center with labor and delivery and a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). The project was presented as part of expanding healthcare services in the rapidly growing region.

Local reporting lists differing details about the building. DallasNews described the Collin County hospital as seven stories tall and said it will open with 60 beds. Community Impact noted officials plan to double the hospital’s capacity in the future. A social media post by Aaron Kinn separately claimed a 12-story hospital could be coming to North McKinney and that the project had “cleared its first major hurdle”; that 12-story figure and the referenced hurdle have not been corroborated by the project descriptions provided by Texas Health Resources.

The excerpted Texas Health description specifically names the Women’s Services Center and the inclusion of labor and delivery and a NICU but does not include a projected opening date, construction timeline, total cost, exact site address, or the level designation for the NICU. The DallasNews and Community Impact excerpts confirm the 60-bed opening figure, while the full text of the DallasNews “capacity to expand up to” clause and the remainder of Community Impact’s release were not included in the materials reviewed, leaving the precise post-expansion bed ceiling unclear.

The announcement arrives amid other major hospital projects in Collin County. Medical City Plano is proceeding with a $108 million expansion that the hospital says began with heavy equipment and fencing and is projected to finish in 2026. Medical City Plano currently lists three ground-level helipads and says it employs more than 2,400 staff and 1,800 physicians; Ben Coogan, CEO of Medical City Plano, is quoted noting the hospital’s role in regional care since opening in 1975.

Key local approvals and logistical details remain to be confirmed for the Texas Health project. The number of approved stories, exact site in McKinney or North McKinney, permit and site-plan filings with the City of McKinney, and any projected start or completion dates were not included in the provided announcements. Officials’ statement that capacity could be doubled implies future expansion planning, but the numerical target beyond the 60-bed opening was not fully documented in the materials reviewed.

If built as described, the new Texas Health hospital would add 60 licensed beds and dedicated maternal-neonatal services to Collin County’s hospital network while joining other regional construction such as Medical City Plano’s tower work projected to finish in 2026. Local planners and Texas Health leaders will need to confirm the remaining technical details and timeline before community impacts on access to labor, delivery and neonatal care can be precisely measured.
