Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Review of Resident #97's medical record revealed an admission date of 05/05/23. Record review of
diagnoses included congestive heart failure and collapsed vertebrae. Record review of the census form
revealed from 06/09/23 through 09/20/23 Resident #97 was private pay. Resident #97 had a hospital stay

from the facility for the previous six months so she thought the insurance company must have been paying
the bill until the previous Administrator and BOM #275 went in her room demanding payment. Resident #97
revealed the previous Administrator confirmed her bill was not sent out for six months because one of the
girls from the business office was let go. So now, Resident #97 owed $29,000.00 that must be paid within
30 days or she will put you out in the streets. Resident #97 revealed BOM #275 stated I hate to do it, but we
will have to unless the bill is paid. Resident #97 revealed they were going to charge a $500.00 a month late
fee but they decided to remove it.

a check she opened it to see what was inside or if it just looked like a bank statement, she usually would

but usually they just said file them, so now she just filed them all without asking the resident. BOM #275
revealed she did open Resident #97's mail because it was from a bank and had a payment distribution on
