Mr. Jewell said that while this was a difficult decision, he is “looking forward to joining my family full time in Indianapolis,” according to a hospital statement. During his tenure, St. Mary’s Health acquired Tri-State Community Clinics and was redesignated as a Magnet facility in 2016.
“I am so grateful for the opportunity I have had to return to my hometown and lead such an outstanding organization,” said Mr. Jewell.
St. Mary’s Health Executive Vice President and COO Dan Parod will serve as interim president, until Mr. Jewell’s successor is named.
