Thirteen hospitals across California, including one in Sacramento, were fined by the state Department of Public Health after investigations found that the hospitals’ “noncompliance with licensing requirements caused, or was likely to cause, serious injury or death to patients,” the agency said Thursday.  Mercy General Hospital in Sacramento County was fined $75,000 for a 2016 incident. A CDPH investigation found that overmedication contributed to or caused the death of a patient after knee surgery at the hospital. Donna Facino went to the hospital for a knee replacement surgery in Sept. 2016. Get the full story in the video above.
