   Ratios change through the day, so they are worth counting yourself on a visit.

8. 08

   Has the center ever been under corrective or adverse action, and what changed afterward?

   HHSC’s files name no enforcement action in this window. They say whether a program is under corrective or adverse action, not what the action was.
