Get an email when this record changes

One email a day naming what moved on FAYETTE COUNTY HOSPITAL: the field, the value before, the value after, and the date of the file that first showed it.

The facility alert follows this one record: a cost report filed or a figure on one changed, an inspection, a deficiency or a penalty recorded, an owner added or removed. The certification number arrives filled in.

On September 1, 2024: NANCY PRYOR no longer appears as DIRECTOR in the Medicare enrollment ownership file. That is one line of the alert.
