The Queens hospital executive linked to Assemblyman Anthony Seminerio's dubious consulting firm remains under a cloud of suspicion for failing to fully report his $2.2 million pay.
The state Health Department recently sent a terse letter to MediSys asking how it justified the full-time salary and pension benefits paid to CEO David Rosen and two other executives on top of their full-time pay from Jamaica Hospital.
The state launched the probe in May after The Post reported that MediSys - the parent company of Jamaica, Flushing and Brookdale hospitals - was padding the pockets of top execs without disclosing the pay as required.
The three cash-strapped hospitals serve many poor and uninsured residents of Queens and Brooklyn, and have gotten hundreds of millions in state Medicaid.
While crying poverty for his hospitals, Rosen raked in $2.2 million in 2006 - $849,087 in salary and benefits from Jamaica, and $1.3 million from MediSys. He reported working 40 hours a week at Jamaica, 40 hours at MediSys, five at Brookdale and five at Flushing.
Seminerio is charged with taking more than $500,000 in "corrupt payments" through Marc Consultants. The complaint says an unnamed hospital, and its affiliated Medicaid plan, gave the firm $390,000. The hospital is believed to be Jamaica.
MediSys spokesman Idan Sims said Rosen would not comment.
