Loretto Hospital CEO George Miller is out, following news of a federal grand jury investigation into improper COVID-19 vaccinations.
federal grand jury investigationLoretto spokeswoman Bonni Pear declined Tuesday to discuss the circumstances of Miller’s departure citing a “policy of not discussing personnel issues.” She would not say whether he was fired or resigned.
But she provided a statement from the hospital’s board of trustees saying: “George Miller is no longer the president and CEO of The Loretto Hospital or affiliated with the organization. Our leadership team, team members, and medical staff remain unwaveringly committed to providing the highest level of patient care and advocacy for the Austin community.”
Employees of the West Side hospital were told of Miller’s departure Tuesday. Tesa Anewishki, executive director of The Loretto Hospital Foundation, will serve as acting president and CEO in Miller’s absence. It was unclear Tuesday whether the leadership change was related to the controversy that swirled around the early days of Loretto’s COVID-19 vaccination program.In March of last year, Loretto’s board reprimanded Miller and former hospital Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer
