Pennypack Rehab: Resident Funds Mismanagement - PA
Pennypack Rehab and Care Center had no documentation concerning accounting records or financial transactions involving Resident C11's funds, federal inspectors found during a January complaint investigation.
The facility accepted responsibility for the resident's financial affairs but failed to track basic information about the person's income sources and expenses from January 8, 2024, through November 14, 2024.
When inspectors interviewed the administrator and business office manager on January 2, both employees were unaware what insurances, pensions and private pay funds were scheduled to be deposited into the resident's personal funds account to pay for the stay.
The administrator, identified as Employee E1, could not explain the facility's financial management of the resident's account during the interview at 2:15 p.m. The business office manager, Employee E3, similarly lacked knowledge of the resident's funding sources.
Federal regulations require nursing homes that manage residents' personal funds to maintain detailed accounting records and documentation of all financial transactions. The facility's acceptance of financial responsibility without proper record-keeping violated multiple state regulations governing resident care policies and management responsibilities.
The inspection classified the violation as minimal harm with few residents affected, but the complete absence of financial documentation raises questions about the facility's oversight of vulnerable residents' money.
Resident C11's case represents a nearly year-long period where a nursing home collected payments and managed personal funds without maintaining the basic financial records required by law.
