NYC’s Fiscally Troubled Public-Hospital System Gets New CEO
Mayor Bill de Blasio has chosen a new official to lead New York City’s sprawling, fiscally troubled public-hospital system.
Mitchell Katz, currently director of the Los Angeles County Health Agency, will lead the system, known as NYC Health + Hospitals, a de Blasio administration official told The Wall Street Journal.
The New York City agency has been without a permanent CEO since former CEO Ram Raju stepped down last November. Stanley Brezenoff, who first served as CEO in the 1980s, has been serving as interim CEO since then. . .
