Gov. Eloy S. Inos confirmed with Saipan Tribune that he recently met with members of the Commonwealth Healthcare Corp. board of trustees.<\/p>\n
Without elaborating on the details of the closed-door dialogue, the governor said it looks like a resolution is forthcoming on the many issues besetting the corporation.<\/p>\n
\u201cI met with the board of trustees\u2026and it looks like we will resolve the many issues raised [between and among the board and management],\u201d Inos told Saipan Tribune.<\/p>\n
He cited the hiring of chief financial officer Jack Taisague at CHCC as among the important developments at the corporation. Taisague was hired on June 2. <\/p>\n
\u201c[With the] hiring of a new CFO, hopefully that will give us clarity on the many issues that have been raised [in the corporation\u2019s finances],\u201d said the governor.<\/p>\n
Inos also noted that the recent release of a $3-million line of credit from the Marianas Public Land Trust would provide relief to some of the immediate and critical needs of the hospital.<\/p>\n
In a separate interview yesterday, CHCC board chair Joaquin Torres confirmed the board\u2019s meeting with the governor. During the meeting, the governor heard the concerns of the board, he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe board has concerns. The governor listened to our concerns and he seems to understand the issues. From this discussion, we\u2019re hoping for a positive result,\u201d said Torres, who declined to elaborate on the particulars of the meeting agenda when asked.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
