D-day for King-Drew

Inspectors with the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services descended on Martin Luther King Jr./Drew Medical Center today to see if the troubled hospital has improved enough to keep receiving as much as $200 million in federal funds. The inspection visit has been anticipated, but the date was apparently a surprise. If accreditation is pulled, the hospital would likely close.
