From WVLT,

American Medical Response (AMR), Knox County’s ambulance provider, said the project will help with response times.
...
One of the main causes for delays, according to AMR, is that ambulances are stuck waiting to unload patients at hospitals.
...
While the expansion should help with getting ambulances back on the road quicker, AMR has also promised change on their end, given the new contract. Among other remedies, AMR said it plans to do some expanding itself.

Assuming this all works out as expected, we owe many thanks to the Haslam family. I've always thanked U.T. Hospital for all the great work they do. I hope this helps them continue their great efforts.
