Inspection Findings
Advance Beneficiary Notice (SNF ABN: a notice that informs residents of changes to their Medicare
care items or services furnished to a beneficiary and for which Medicare does not pay) to one of one sampled resident (Resident 2) reviewed for Medicare benefit notification after skilled services ended.This failure had the potential for Resident 2 not to be able to make informed decisions about his care and finances, being unaware of his right to appeal and placed him at risk for unexpected medical bills.During a concurrent interview and record review on 8/6/25, at 2:48 PM, the Admissions Coordinator (AC) stated Resident 2's Medicare Part A skilled services coverage ended on 7/23/25.
The AC stated Resident 2 continued to stay in the facility after his skilled care ended.
The AC confirmed that Resident 2's Medicare eligibility benefits document indicated that Resident 2 had 46 Medicare days remaining.
The AC stated the SNF ABN notice should have been issued to Resident 2 when his skilled services coverage ended on 7/23/25 and he continued to remain at the facility.
The AC further stated that without the SNF ABN, the resident might not know his rights.During a concurrent interview and record review on 8/6/25, at 12:40 PM, the Social Services Director (SSD) confirmed that Resident 2 was discharged from Medicare Part A services on 7/23/25, but Resident 2 remained in the facility as a long term care resident.
The SSD further confirmed there was no indication in Resident 2's medical record that the SNF ABN was provided to Resident 2.During a concurrent interview and record review on 8/6/25, at 1:13 PM, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated Resident 2 was scheduled for discharge on [DATE], but remained in the facility and transitioned to long term care.
The DON stated further Resident 2's last Medicare-covered day was 7/23/25.
The DON stated the SNF ABN notice should be given to residents three days before the last covered day, so the residents knew their rights and had a chance to appeal.
The DON confirmed that the SNF ABN notice was not provided to Resident 2.
The DON stated that not providing the SNF ABN could lead to unexpected billing for the residents.Review of an undated facility policy titled, Advance Beneficiary Notices, indicated, .The facility shall inform Medicare beneficiaries of his or her potential liability for payment. A liability notice shall be issued to Medicare beneficiaries upon admission or during a resident's stay, before the facility provides: (a.) An item or service that is usually paid for by Medicare .or (b.) Custodial Care .For Part A items and services, the facility shall use the Skilled Nursing Facility Advance Beneficiary Notice (SNF ABN), Form CMS-10055.
