Jackson Out, Severance Hidden

Jackson Out, Severance Hidden

Published 13 hours ago
Description

Chesapeake Regional Healthcare’s longtime CEO Reese Jackson is out without cause, walking away with a hefty severance package — though the exact amount remains secret. The board met in closed session, claimed no records exist, and appointed Amber Egyud as interim leader while quietly hashing out Jackson’s exit. Despite his contract guaranteeing nearly $700K in severance for no-fault termination, officials invoke FOIA exemptions to shield details — even as they claim no agreement has been finalized. With the hospital authority’s board operating under Virginia’s special exemptions, the lack of transparency around how public money is being spent is raising serious red flags.
