communities we serve; and expanding the community’s available
pool of physicians and other health care professionals by offering
excellent academic programs.
Welcome
We welcome your interest and hope you will often attend Maricopa County Special Health Care District
Board of Directors meetings. Democracy cannot endure without an informed and involved electorate.
The Board of Directors is the governing body for Maricopa Integrated Health System. Each member
represents one of the five districts in Maricopa Country. Members of the Board are public officials,
elected by the voters of Maricopa Country. The Board of Directors sets policy and the President & Chief
Executive Officer, who is hired by the Board, directs staff to carry out the policies.
Meetings
The Board of Directors generally holds meetings at 1:00 p.m. on the second and fourth Wednesdays of
the month. Please visit http://mihs.org/governing-bodies/bod-calendar or call the District Clerk at 602344-5177 to confirm the date of the next regular meeting.
The meeting may appear to proceed quickly, with important decisions reached with little discussion.
However, the agenda and meeting material is available to the Board of Directors prior to the meeting,
giving them the opportunity to study every item and to ask questions of District staff members. If
no additional facts are presented at the meeting, action may be taken without further discussion.
How Citizens Can Participate
The Board of Directors values citizen comments and input. Citizens may appear before the Board of
Directors to express their views. Any member of the public will be given three minutes to address the
Board on issues of interest or concern to them. If you wish to address the Board, please complete a
Speaker’s Slip and deliver it to the Clerk of the Board. If you have anything that you wish distributed to
the Board and included in the official record, please hand it to the Clerk who will distribute the information
to the Board Members and Maricopa Integrated Health System Senior Staff.
Speakers will be called in the order in which requests to speak are received. Your name will be called
when the Call to Public has been opened or when the Board reaches the agenda item which you wish to
speak. As mandated by the Arizona Open Meeting Law, officials may not discuss items not on the
agenda, but may direct staff to follow-up with the citizen.
Agendas are available within 24 hours of each meeting in the Office of the Board, Maricopa Medical Center, Administration Bldg, 2nd Floor 2601 E. Roosevelt, Phoenix, AZ
