A big shake up at Capital Region Medical Center.

The Medical Center in Jefferson City is merging with MU Health Care.

MU Health officials say Denny Hamilton will be the new chief operating officer of Capital Region starting in January. He has been with Capital Region since the early 1990’s.

Debra Deeken will be the interim chief nursing officer and Mike Rundle will be the interim finance officer.
