(i) A resident, whose hospitalization or
therapeutic leave exceeds the bed-hold period
under the State plan, returns to the facility to
their previous room if available or immediately
upon the first availability of a bed in a semiprivate room if the resident(A) Requires the services provided by the
facility; and
(B) Is eligible for Medicare skilled nursing
facility services or Medicaid nursing facility
services.
(ii) If the facility that determines that a resident
who was transferred with an expectation of
returning to the facility, cannot return to the
facility, the facility must comply with the
requirements of paragraph (c) as they apply to
discharges.
(e)(2) Readmission to a composite distinct part.
When the facility to which a resident returns is
a composite distinct part (as defined in §
483.5), the resident must be permitted to return
to an available bed in the particular location of
the composite distinct part in which he or she
resided previously. If a bed is not available in
that location at the time of return, the resident
must be given the option to return to that
location upon the first availability of a bed
there.
This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on interview and record review, the
facility failed to readmit one of one sampled
resident (Resident 1) following a hospitalization
during a seven-day bed hold period and to
follow the Department of Health Care Services'
Administrative Appeals' order to readmit the
resident. These failures violated the resident's
right to readmission as required by law.

Findings:
Resident 1's clinical record was reviewed and
indicated she was admitted to the facility in
7/2016. Her Minimum Data Set (MDS, an
assessment tool), dated 10/20/16, indicated
she was cognitively intact. A physician order,
dated 7/14/16, indicated she was capable of
making healthcare decisions.
Resident 1's progress note, dated 7/13/16,
indicated the resident refused to sign the
Standard Admission Agreement. Resident 1
deferred to a family member and he also
refused to sign the agreement. There was no
documentation indicating the family member
was the responsible party (RP, individual
designated to make medical decisions) or had
power of attorney. Numerous attempts were
made by the facility to have the Standard
Admission Agreement signed, but to no avail.
Resident 1's progress note, dated 12/28/16,
indicated she had a fever and a headache. Her
physician was called and a chest X-ray and
laboratory tests were ordered. The family
member refused to allow the laboratory tests to
be drawn.
Resident 1's progress note, dated 1/2/17,
indicated she vomited. Her physician was
called and visited on 1/3/17. A physician order,
dated 1/3/17, indicated she was to be
transferred to the hospital for further evaluation.
The Bed Hold Request Form, dated 1/3/17,
indicated the resident consented to a sevenday bed hold.
During interviews with the administrator (ADM)
on 1/19/17, at 11 a.m., and 2/1/17, at 1:15
p.m., she stated Resident 1 refused to sign any
documents and never produced any

documents indicating her family member was
the RP or had power of attorney. She stated
when the hospital called on 1/9/17 to transfer
the resident back pursuant to the bed hold, the
facility refused unless the Standard Admission
Agreement was signed.
The ADM stated a hearing was held before the
State of California, Department of Health Care
Services on 1/19/17 and the hearing officer
ordered the facility to take back Resident 1.
She stated the facility refused to take back the
resident, and she was transferred to another
facility on 1/20/17.
The ADM further stated Resident 1 became ill
at the other facility and was transferred to the
hospital six days later. She stated the resident
needed surgery and remained hospitalized.
During an interview with the hospital social
worker (HSW) on 2/2/17, at 10:30 a.m., she
stated Resident 1 was transferred to the
hospital on 1/3/17 for treatment of pneumonia.
She stated while the resident was a patient in
the hospital she refused to sign any papers as
did her family member. The HSW stated the
facility refused to take back the resident so the
resident was transferred to another facility
where she also refused to sign any papers.
She stated after Resident 1 became ill at the
other facility on 1/26/17, she was transferred
back to the hospital where she remained
hospitalized. The HSW stated Resident 1's
physician thought the resident needed surgery
but the resident would not consent.
Review of the Department of Health Services'
Administrative Appeals Final Decision and
Order, dated 1/30/17, indicated the facility must
immediately readmit Resident 1.
