Nebraska Medicine plans to expand cancer care to Kearney, University Village development at UNK

OMAHA – Nebraska Medicine is making plans to expand cancer services to Kearney with the construction of a new facility. A request for proposal (RFP) has been released to solicit input on the project.

The center would be focused on providing additional cancer services to the communities of central Nebraska.

“We were thrilled to join forces with Heartland Hematology and Oncology in Kearney late last year,” said Cory Shaw, executive vice president-chief operating officer for Nebraska Medicine. “This is an incredibly busy practice that is providing life-saving care to the people of central Nebraska. The current facility is at its maximum capacity, while the demand for their expert care continues to grow.”

If approved, the center would offer a range of cancer services, including medical oncology, hematology, infusion, radiation oncology, surgical oncology consults, and laboratory and procedural services.
