VERSIONS OF THIS BILL
A house RESOLUTION
TO HONOR AND CONGRATULATE TOD AUGSBURGER, PRESIDENT AND CEO OF LEXINGTON HEALTH, ON THE OCCASION OF HIS RETIREMENT, TO EXTEND DEEP APPRECIATION FOR HIS TWENTY-SIX YEARS OF DISTINGUISHED SERVICE, AND TO OFFER BEST WISHES FOR A SATISFYING AND REWARDING RETIREMENT.
Whereas, since 1999, Lexington Health, formerly Lexington Medical Center, has enjoyed the benefit of the dedication, experience, and leadership of Tod Augsburger, its president and CEO, who soon will retire after twenty-six years of outstanding service. Mr. Augsburger has served as president and CEO of Lexington Health since 2015. Previously, he served as senior vice president and chief operating officer (1999-2015); and
Whereas, during his tenure as president, Lexington Medical Center became Lexington Health (2025), converted from a governmental to a private not-for-profit healthcare system (2021), partnered with the University of South Carolina (USC) to relocate the USC School of Nursing to West Columbia (2023), and led significant facility additions and expansions throughout the Midlands. Notably, he helped the organization gain recognition as a Magnet Hospital With Distinction, as U.S. News and World Report's #2 hospital in South Carolina, and as Modern Healthcare's #1 family-friendly healthcare organization in America; and
Whereas, grateful for the legacy of consistent excellence Tod Augsburger has bestowed on this state, the people of South Carolina take great pleasure in wishing him well as he enters retirement and trust he will find much enjoyment in the more leisurely pace of the days ahead. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, honor and congratulate Tod Augsburger, president and CEO of Lexington Health, on the occasion of his retirement, extend deep appreciation for his twenty-six years of distinguished service, and offer best wishes for a satisfying and rewarding retirement.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Tod Augsburger.
