Killer King at risk again
The feds have put King-Harbor hospital on notice again that all federal funds may be pulled because the emrgency room keeps putting patients in "immediate jeopardy." It's the fourth time since 2004 that the former King/Drew Medical Center has been found to be falling below basic standards of care. The Times reports the hospital has 23 days to improve, but says "even if the problems are resolved by that deadline, King-Harbor...could still lose its federal certification because it had failed to meet the terms of a March agreement with the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services."
