Local Leaders react to report that found 2 dozen alleged violations at Northern Louisiana Medical Center

Elected leaders in Lincoln Parish, Louisiana, are responding to an 87-page report identifying 24 alleged violations at Northern Louisiana Medical Center (NLMC). The report from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and CMS could lead to the hospital's Medicare provider agreement termination in 2026 if deficiencies are not corrected, with the operator, Allegiance Health Management, facing financial challenges.
