Centennial Hills Hospital Medical Center is a for-profit hospital owned by Universal Health Services and operated by Valley Health System located in the Centennial Hills neighborhood in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States at 6900 North Durango Drive near Interstate 11/U.S. Route 95 and Clark County 215. The hospital has 226 beds and an area of 354,000 sq ft (32,900 m2),[2] The campus includes two medical office buildings.

The hospital opened its eight-story tower on January 21, 2008, having originally planned to open in Autumn 2007. The building included 52,000 square feet (4,800 m2) of space for future expansion.[1] It is the first tobacco-free campus in Nevada.[3] Centennial Hills Hospital Medical Center was the first medical facility in the state to offer the scanning system known as the O-arm.[4]

In 2015 the daughter of Amy Vilela was turned away from Centennial Hills Hospital because of a lack of health insurance after having presented symptoms of a deep vein thrombosis. She later died when the blood clot broke off and became a pulmonary embolism[5] This led to Vilela fighting for single-payer healthcare system or commonly called as "Medicare for All".[6]
