The Montana State Hospital in Warm Springs has been placed on “Immediate Jeopardy” status by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). CMS sent a letter to the Montana State Hospital saying the hospital violated patient rights and infection prevention control.
CMS determined that the violations are so serious that it’s an immediate and serious threat to the health and safety of any individual who comes to the hospital to receive emergency services. CMS has given the hospital until March 13 to correct the problems.
