Chapter 8 Graded Assignment 2: Table or Chart: NC Hospital Research

The chapter also discussed accreditation of hospitals, which is important for reimbursement (if deemed status is achieved) and quality standards.After reading the text and learning about the various types of hospitals and accreditation, please visit the American Hospital Directory website (opens in a new window) [plain text URL: https://www.ahd.com/states/hospital_NC.html].
