The president and CEO of Riley Hospital for Children at Indiana University Health has resigned.

Dan Fink, who joined the hospital nearly six years ago as chief operating officer, said in a memo to Riley staff that his last day is Friday. He did not provide a reason for his resignation.

“It has been a pleasure to serve alongside you over the past six years, first as COO and most recently, as CEO,” Fink said in the memo. “I have been fortunate to lead a team that is truly committed to the highest standards in patient care.”

Fink served as CEO the past two years and oversaw the opening of the $475 million Riley Simon Family Tower, the hospital’s single largest expansion.

Marilyn Cox will serve as interim president and CEO while Riley conducts a national search for a new leader.

Cox, a 21-year veteran of the hospital, has served as senior vice president for nursing and patient care services since 1991.

  1. "And the success of the Indiana GOP to not allow an expansion of Medicaid had nothing to do with Indiana hospitals' financial woes? Fixed that for you; editorial bias rebalanced. Seriously, there are so many things wrong with Obamacare that the only way one can view it as a success is to assume that it was designed to fail our way into a government single payor healthcare system. The system is complex, creates huge regulatory burdens and overhead and yet still does not have adequate means to control escalating health care costs. But then when you elect a 10th grade math drop out with no quantitative reasoning skills to be President of one of the world's most important economies in troubled times, you can't really be surprised by blatant stupidity.

  2. No NIMBYs here to chase off a decent development. We don't need tons of parking and we'd happily play the role of host to a downtown Whole Foods.

  3. Whatever you do, don't change a single thing about Broad Ripple. I want it to look just like it did in the late '70s, with 30% of the north side of Broad Ripple Avenue burned out and plenty of places to park. That's right Broad Ripple, NEVER CHANGE. Let the world pass you by, don't improve your empty, abandoned lots full of weeds. Someday someone will want to film a zombie movie here.

  4. Hollywood could step in and make a movie about the history about this forlorn series. It could be a full celebrity cast of characters. WOW. http://www.advanceindiana.blogspot.com/2013/02/indiana-taxpayers-forced-to-pay-for.html

  5. This shouldn't come as a shock to many. Austin is a great city, and Indy needs to take some notes. Austin invests in decent transit options, has a highly educated workforce, embraces a creative class, and --despite being the state capital-- is not micromanaged by rural and suburban legislators. Want Indy to grow? Invest in the city (i.e. spend money). Raise taxes a bit, and use the money to improve education. And keep the state legislature out of Indy the other 9 months of the year.
