NGH emails

Emails — Hospital Authority Board Chair Joel Sullivan to Finance Director Kevin Crumbo…then Crumbo to Sullivan…then from Council Director Cooper to all CMs on my behalf…and then CM Vercher to all CMs.

CM Vercher said, in part:

To make accusations of a lack of transparency on the part of Nashville General seem disingenuous at best. I agree with your admonition to our colleagues not to pass any judgement until the full facts are known, but the Finance Director’s communications about Nashville General should not be viewed in the light of a single email. Like police violence and inequities in public education, there is a history to this issue that cannot and should not be ignored.

I agree with her that the full relationship needs to be considered...not just a few emails this week.
