Also included is an interview featuring a special guest, the Chief Medical Officer Dr. Frank Sweeney of Heywood Hospital who discusses Heywood Healthcare’s financial independence after bankruptcy, confirms a return to full function following a separate recent cyber event, and clarifies that a poor quality Leapfrog rating was unjustly applied because Heywood opted not to participate in a voluntary reporting survey. “It’s like getting a “D” on a test that you never took”.
