The Triad Business Journal reported today that federal officials from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid are touring Greensboro’s Moses H. Cone Memorial Hospital after issuing a notice that “the hospital was found not in compliance with issues surrounding its governing body, patient rights and infection control.”
