DHHS hires Teabagger McCrookie donor at $95,000/yr [View all]

The state Department of Health and Human Services has filled a newly created $95,000 senior planner position with a Greenville woman who was a medical school lecturer for three years but who has been absent from the health care labor force since 2002.

Margaret “Mardy” Peal, 42, has been hired as part of the “Partnership for a Healthy North Carolina,” Gov. Pat McCrory’s initiative to allow private insurance companies to run the government’s health care program for the poor in North Carolina.

Peal gave $1,250 to the McCrory campaign in 2012. She helped organize the Eastern North Carolina Tea Party in 2010.

The job was not posted, which prevented others from applying. Department officials declined to provide a job description or list Peal’s duties.
