"Hilo Medical Center categorically denies any involvement in this matter and does not condone this type of behavior," said Howard Ainsley, East Hawaii Regional CEO of Hawaii Health Systems Corporation. "Over the years, we have enjoyed a positive relationship with members of the legislature. It is extremely unfortunate that our good hospital was brought into a such bad act. We want to assure our legislators that we will fully cooperate with the investigative process to bring the perpetrators of these acts to justice."
