Dr. Larry Antonucci has worked at Lee Health since after his residency.

The Lee Health Board has scheduled several town hall meetings regarding its governance structure evaluation, which is currently underway.

The evaluation is being completed by a third-party expert, which will help determine any benefits to Lee County residents and the health system of Lee Health.

The evaluation process will conclude in February. The town hall gatherings will give residents opportunities to ask questions and hear updates on the following:

  • The reasons Lee Health is evaluating its business structure and the process it’s following
  • How Lee Health would maintain its commitment to its safety-net mission by continuing to care for community members regardless of their ability to pay
  • What the system knows today about the two nonprofit business structures it is evaluating and the additional issues that will be assessed as part of the evaluation.

The Community Town Hall gatherings are scheduled for 6 p.m. on the following dates:

  • Jan. 4 at Lehigh Acres Municipal Services Improvement District, 601 E. County Lane Lehigh Acres
  • Jan. 5 at the Quality Life Center 3210, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. in Fort Myers
  • Jan. 8 at the Lakes Regional Library, 152390 Bass Rd. in Fort Myers
  • Jan. 9 at the Cape Christian Church Student Center, 2110 Chiquita Blvd. S in Cape Coral
  • Jan. 10 at the Fort Myers Downtown Library 2450 First St. in Fort Myers
  • Jan. 11 at the St. Michael and All Angels Episcopal Church
