Moseley to retire
For those who have been paying attention to the news on Mental Health reform (such as this or this), the following from DHHS will set some tongues-a-wagging:
RALEIGH - North Carolina Division of Mental Health, Developmental Disabilities, and Substance Abuse Services (MH/DD/SAS) Director Mike Moseley today announced that he is retiring."I've accomplished a great deal in my three decades of public service to the State of North Carolina," Moseley said. "There have been a lot of changes in the state system during my tenure, and I'm proud of what I've done to move things forward for the people who depend on this system for their care."
Moseley has been one of the leaders responsible for shifting the state from a government provider model to a mental health system that relies largely on private health providers.
The release from DHHS notes: "Moseley will leave the Division effective Feb. 29, but he plans to work another 90 days at the department level as part of the transition starting March 3."
For those who don't believe in coincidences, I would note that the N+O is getting ready to roll out a big series on mental health this weekend.
