UI settles two disputes over Children’s Hospital payments
The University of Iowa will seek Board of Regents approval to raise the Stead Family Children’s Hospital budget to 392.7 million after ruling against it in a long running dispute with contractor Modern Piping and settling a separate dispute with Merit Construction. The payments bring total hospital project costs to 392.7 million, with Modern Piping paid 73.9 million and Merit 63.2 million plus attorney fees. The university says the cost increase is covered by the self supporting UI Hospitals and Clinics enterprise, not the general fund, and remains subject to appeals and Regents review.
