Not a physician and does not have an MBA...culture change from what has been precedence in the past...BD 

UC Irvine on Wednesday appointed to head its medical center a registered nurse who spent 12 years as one of the hospital's top administrators during a period in which it suffered a series of scandals, including one in which more than 30 patients on the imageliver transplant list died as the hospital turned down scores of organs that were then successfully transplanted elsewhere.
"After an exhaustive national search, we concluded that the best candidate was already in our midst," said Dr. David N. Bailey, vice chancellor for health affairs, in a news release.
Maureen Zehntner has held the post of interim chief executive since 2005, but it is her association with the medical program's troubled past that has led some to criticize the university for choosing one of its old guard at a time when it is trying to wipe clean its stained reputation.
