One email a day naming what moved on MyMichigan Medical Center Sault: 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 December 1, 2025: DAVID BARRY JAHN no longer appears as CORPORATE OFFICER in the Medicare enrollment ownership file. That is one line of the alert.
