provincial / regional specialist hospital
Explanation:
There are 24900 hits in Google for "specialist hospital".

As someone from UK - this is the term I hear the most.

Provincial is most exactly translates "wojewodztwo", but regional is used more widely and is more or less the same thing or of course use the transliteration "voivodeship specialist hospital" if you think the readers will be familiar with Polish terminology to some degree - if not stick to regional / provincial.
