HUD gives 223(f) applications queue priority when the facility has CMS overall and health inspection ratings of at least 2 stars and no abuse icon, among other tests (ORCF criteria of March 31, 2026). Weirton Medical Center meets that part today: 4 stars overall, 4 on health inspections, no abuse icon. The loan-to-value, coverage and operator tests depend on the deal. All the criteria.
