Longtime CEO Leaves Boston's Caritas Christi Health Care System.

The Boston Globe Knight Ridder/Tribune Business News

Apr. 4--The Boston Archdiocese said yesterday that Dr. Michael F. Collins, a longtime leader in Boston health care, will no longer head the Archdiocese's large Catholic hospital and physician network.

The Archdiocese would not comment on whether Collins, 48, was fired or whether he resigned. But John Drew, a Boston developer and chairman of the Caritas Christi Health Care System board of governors, said Archdiocese officials including Archbishop Sean P. O'Malley asked Collins "to step aside."
