Metro Atlanta has wayyy more than 4 hospitals.

Piedmont Hospital group with multiple locations is well known on the north side. Then there is Northside Hospital, too.

As of last year up here in Marietta, Wellstar Kennestone had 76 ICU beds. I think that has increased with the overbuilds.

Here is a list of the Wellstar Hospitals. I deleted those not in the metro area. There are fifteen more Urgent Care Centers for emergency use that would feed into these hospitals.

Founded in 1901, the 762-bed hospital includes two campuses in midtown Atlanta and East Point. It is known for its Level I Trauma Center.

I believe I saw somewhere it is 20% of the people who show up to the Hospital is admitted. Then 3% of those that show up need ICU. The rest just go home, relax and recover.
