PPH Finance Committee Cancels Regular Meeting

The Finance Committee of the Board of Directors of Palomar Pomerado Health (PPH) has cancelled its regular monthly meeting scheduled for January 24th. The cancellation notice is attached.

I believe the meeting cancellation is significant for at least the following reason. During the Board's special joint meeting on December 20th, significant project cost increases (+$230 million) were disclosed. Concerned board member Bruce Krider requested that the Finance Committee study and suggest strategies for containing the cost increases. Mr. Krider requested that the Finance Committee do this "real quick."

Finance Committee is not addressing the $230 million funding shortfall issue "real quick" by cancelling its meeting!

PPH has ignored the concerns of the public. Now, PPH is ignoring a request by a member of its own board! Maybe the Finance Committee has found something else more important than the issue of the $230 million funding shortfall.
