Former MetroHealth CEO Dr. Akram Boutros has filed a lawsuit in the Cuyahoga County Court of Common pleas, against MetroHealth Board of Trustees for violations of the Ohio Open Meetings Act, according to his attorney Jason Bristol. Dr. Akram Boutros was fired on Nov. 21 after an investigation found he authorized more than $1,900,000 in supplemental bonuses to himself between 2018-2022 without disclosing it to the Board, MetroHealth System Chair Vanessa Whiting said.
