Summary

The Municipal Corporation Committee forwarded proposal 182025 appointing Michael O'Brien to the Marion County Health and Hospital Corporation Board of Trustees to the full council after the nominee described policy and Medicaid experience.

The Municipal Corporation Committee voted to send proposal 182025 appointing Michael O'Brien to the Marion County Health and Hospital Corporation Board of Trustees to the full council with a due-pass recommendation by voice vote.

Michael O'Brien, introduced by the committee as the nominee, told members he has spent his professional career working in Marion County and described his background as managing partner of an 1816 public affairs group and as a former executive director of the Indiana Association of Health Plans. O'Brien said that experience included negotiating Medicaid rates and policy and remarked that his family has used Riley Children's Hospital while caring for a child with special health needs.

Committee members praised O'Brien's experience and several asked that appointees keep the council informed of matters that may be of interest. Council members asked him to provide meeting notes or updates to the council clerk to ensure the council does not learn of developments through the media.

Councilor Keith Graves moved that the committee send proposal 182025 to the full council; the motion was seconded and carried by voice vote with no recorded opposition. The committee record does not show a roll-call vote or a final council confirmation date.
