May 28, 2014 at 11:29am. Views: 31

Loma Linda University Health (LLUH) has appointed Kerry Heinrich, JD, as interim chief executive officer of Loma Linda University Medical Center (LLUMC) and interim administrator of Loma Linda University Children’s Hospital, effective July 1, 2014. Mr. Heinrich will provide strategic leadership for—and oversee the day-to-day operations of—the six hospitals that form LLUMC. He will work collaboratively with leadership across the academic medical center campus to ensure that the major initiatives continue to move forward while always staying focused on fulfilling Loma Linda’s mission to continue the teaching and healing ministry of Jesus Christ. Mr. Heinrich currently serves as a partner at Schilt & Heinrich, LLP. In coordination with the Office of General Counsel at LLUH, he works closely with senior leadership of LLUH, LLU, LLUMC and the faculty practice plan in providing advice and counsel concerning the legal environment affecting operations within each corporation. This includes reimbursement, finance, patient safety and reliability, Medicare and Medi-Cal payment initiatives, strategic planning, and corporate development. Mr. Heinrich’s work with Loma Linda began in 1984. Ruthita Fike, MA, who has served as CEO of LLUMC for the past 10 years, announced her resignation last month. Her resignation is effective July 1, at which time Mr. Heinrich will assume his role as interim CEO.

A residence shows visible damage from flooding, mud and debris following severe winter storms that began Dec. 23, which brought heavy rain and debris flows to mountain and high desert communities across San Bernardino County. This week, the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors approved recovery-related fee waivers to help eligible property owners repair and rebuild as response and long-term recovery efforts continue.

Photo Caption: Crime in San Bernardino has dropped by 30 percent or more throughout the city. One reason is that there are more officers on the streets. The Police Department’s goal is to have 350 sworn officers. Current full-time staffing is reported at 295 sworn officers and 156 professional staff.
