The FBI and other law enforcement agencies are looking into incidents in which people masquerading as unannounced inspectors were found poking around three hospitals in Boston, Detroit and Los Angeles.

The article in the Washington Post is worth reading if you are involved in hospital administration or security.

It is a testament to the FBI and DHS that unconnected incidents like this have been grouped. Taken as a whole three separate incidents of people posing as hospital inspectors from the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) is something worth looking into and something worth warning hospitals about. Kudos to the FBI!
