HCHD Set to Open New El Franco Lee Health Center in Alief

The Harris County Hospital District, the community's primary provider of medical care to the uninsured and underinsured, will open a new 66,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art health center and pharmacy in the Alief-area of west Houston Monday, May 18.
