Lawyers for Steward Health Care CEO Ralph de la Torre say he won't comply with a subpoena to appear before a U.S. Senate committee investigating the hospital company's bankruptcy. In a letter dated Wednesday to committee chair U.S. Sen.

BOSTON — Steward Health Care CEO Ralph de la Torre won’t comply with a subpoena to appear before a U.S. Senate committee that is investigating the hospital company’s bankruptcy, his lawyers said Wednesday.

A federal bankruptcy court on Wednesday approved the sale of Steward’s other hospitals in Massachusetts. “Let me be clear: We will not accept this postponement. Congress will hold Dr. de la Torre accountable for his greed and for the damage he has caused to hospitals and patients throughout America,” Sanders said. “This Committee intends to move forward aggressively to compel Dr. de la Torre to testify to the gross mismanagement of Steward Health Care.”

Markey and Warren said de la Torre owes the public and Congress answers and must be held in contempt if he fails to appear before the committee.
