Even before Pablo Velez takes over as CEO of the El Centro Regional Medical Center, he is reassuring Imperial Valley residents that the hospital will be there long-term.
UC San Diego Health is taking over operations at El Centro Regional Medical Center while the hospital’s board explores options for financial stability, and now there is a new top executive to run operations.
Velez is a former nurse who rose through the ranks at Sharp Chula Vista Medical Center to eventually become CEO there. In addition to ECRMC, Imperial County has one other hospital — Pioneers Memorial Healthcare District. UCSD Health’s Chief Administrative Officer Matthew Jenusaitis said he has “no doubt” the region can double the size of the health care, should they be able to bring in more patients. Jenusaitis said that process involves adding more specialty care.
“See what are some of the things that we can work together on, some of the things we can consolidate,” Velez said. “So that we’re not duplicating the services because it becomes very expensive. It becomes expensive for them and it becomes expensive for us.”an update from ECRMC’s March 28 board meeting found the hospital lost $1.8 million in February.
