Mr. Borrego serves as senior vice president and CEO of both Jackson West Medical Center and Jackson South Medical Center, overseeing strategic leadership, operational performance and long-term growth at two rapidly evolving community hospitals. At Jackson West, Miami-based Jackson Health System’s first academic medical center in Doral and its first built-to-suit campus, he led the multiyear planning, design and execution of the $280 million project before its 2021 opening, which included a 100-bed hospital, a diagnostic center, outpatient clinics, adult and pediatric emergency rooms and an ambulatory medical pavilion. The campus filled a critical gap in access to high-quality care for the rapidly growing Doral and west Miami-Dade area. At Jackson South, a 262-bed acute care hospital, Mr. Borrego has directed clinical operations, service line development and performance improvement initiatives, first as COO and now as CEO, strengthening the hospital’s role in trauma, emergency and specialty care for South Miami-Dade. During the Covid-19 pandemic, he played a key role in countywide testing and vaccination efforts aimed at ensuring equitable access for vulnerable populations. Before joining Jackson Health System, Mr. Borrego served as chief of staff to a Miami-Dade commissioner and as South Florida regional director for a U.S. senator. He currently serves on the boards of the Orange Bowl Committee, Voice for Children, the World Trade Center Miami and the Prospera Business Fund.
