According to a March 5, 2019 news report by WBNS News (CBS) in Columbus, Ohio, recently released Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services documents “show that Mount Carmel Health System remains out of compliance with federal Medicare requirements because not all nurses and physicians have been trained on new policies and procedures that have been adopted in wake of the patient overdose scandal.”
Mount Carmel Hospital released a statement on behalf of Ed Lamb, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Mount Carmel Health System, on February 22, 2019. “We’re continuing to do everything we can to understand what happened regarding the deaths of patients under the care of Dr. William Husel and to make changes to ensure it never happens again. We remain committed to providing accurate information to our community and colleagues as we learn more through our investigation.”
