NeuroRestorative Reno: Medicare Notice Failures - NV
The patient, identified in inspection records only as Resident 26, was admitted to CareMeridian LLC, doing business as NeuroRestorative, on a date redacted from public records. Their diagnoses included essential primary hypertension and generalized muscle weakness. Medicare Part A covered their stay beginning December 20, 2024. The last covered day was February 2, 2025.

See the Derila PillowSomewhere in that window, two federal forms were supposed to be delivered to the resident. The first, CMS Form 10055, is the Skilled Nursing Facility Advanced Beneficiary Notice of Non-Coverage, which tells patients their Medicare coverage is ending and what that means for their costs going forward. The second, Form 10123, is the Notice of Medicare Non-Coverage, a separate required document that must be provided before a Medicare-covered stay ends so the resident has time to appeal.
Neither form was in the resident's record.
The Regional Support Director of Nursing confirmed on February 19, 2025, that Resident 26 had been in the facility from December 20, 2024, through February 2, 2025, and should have received both documents. She told inspectors the facility could not locate copies. Then she offered an explanation: the forms may not have been completed because the facility had not had a social worker or case worker.
That answer raised its own question. The forms exist specifically so that residents, many of them elderly or cognitively impaired, know what is happening to their coverage before it stops. Without the Advanced Beneficiary Notice, a patient has no documented warning that upcoming services may not be covered and that they could be billed. Without the Notice of Medicare Non-Coverage, they lose the opportunity to file an appeal before discharge. The Regional Support DON acknowledged the facility should have provided the forms and kept copies in the record.
Two days later, on the morning of February 21, 2025, she told inspectors she had also been unable to locate a policy on beneficiary notifications.
The facility had no social worker. It had no case worker. It had no policy on file. And it had no paperwork showing the one resident reviewed by inspectors ever received what federal rules require.
NeuroRestorative operates as a specialty long-term care provider, its name suggesting a focus on neurological rehabilitation. Its Reno location sits on Lake Placid Drive, in a suite off a commercial stretch south of the city. The inspection, conducted February 21, 2025, was a health survey. CMS rated the deficiency as minimal harm or potential for actual harm, with few residents affected.
That classification reflects what inspectors could document, not necessarily the full scope of the problem. The review covered only two residents discharged from Medicare Part A stays with benefit days remaining in the previous six months. One of the two lacked the required notices. The facility's inability to produce a beneficiary notification policy raises the question of how many other discharges proceeded the same way, with no forms, no record, and no one assigned to complete them.
The Regional Support DON did not dispute any of it. She confirmed the gap, confirmed the missing policy, confirmed the facility's own acknowledgment that the forms should have been there.
Resident 26 left the facility on February 2. Whether they understood their Medicare coverage had ended, whether they knew they had the right to appeal, whether anyone explained any of it to them before they walked out, the record does not say. The facility cannot say either.
