However, the Board recently held a secret election to vote in a new CEO, nullifying the managing contract with MHS and sparking public concern about the possibility of corruption:
"Leaders of The Border Organization are asking the Del Rio Hospital Board to immediately call a special meeting to nullify the vote to hire the hospital's chief executive officer....The vote was taken by a so-called secret ballot. They did not have to sign their names to the ballots they cast... There is a reason that a public board must take a public vote. TBO leaders believe that the people of the community have a right to know how the people they elected to represent them voted on this important issue...."
