According to Medicare.gov, several Maine hospitals fall below federal standards when it comes to patient safety and infection transmission control.  Among those being fined are some of Maine's largest hospitals.

 

  • Inland Hospital - Waterville  **CORRECTION** I would like to apologize to Inland Hospital...they are NOT among the hospitals that are being fined.  Hospitals with a score 6 or greater are being penalized for poor patient scores.  Inland Hospital has a score of 3.
