Review of Resident #45's life care contract with the facility signed by the resident on 09/30/04 revealed she would be charged $800.00 per month for care at the facility for the rest of her life, even upon move-in to assisted living or skilled nursing from her villa.

F 0569 • Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm August 2023: $340.00 per day from 08/01/23 to 08/31/23, hair set, tip and shampoo totaling $10579.60 • Residents Affected - Few September 2023: $340.00 per day from 09/01/23 to 09/04/23 totaling $1360.00 The bottom of the ledger indicated there was a credit of $25,514.10. Interview on 07/23/24 at 8:50 A.M. with Executor of Estate (EE) #299 revealed back in 2023, the facility had overcharged Resident #45 while she was a resident in the skilled nursing facility. In January 2024, he identified there was a mistake with Resident #45's accounting due to this overcharging, the facility's corporation had been contacted and a credit was due to Resident #45's estate but the credit had not been received as of the time of the interview. Interview on 07/23/24 starting at 2:20 P.M. with Accounting Manager (AM) #310 and [NAME] Specialist (BS) #309 revealed Resident #45 was a resident here before the facility's corporation came along. Resident #45 had a special life care contract in place which indicated she would be charged $800.00 per month regardless of her level of care. Over Resident #45's time on the facility's campus, she lived in a villa but was admitted to this skilled nursing facility on 05/20/23 where she resided until 09/05/23. At some point (date not known) the facility's corporate billing personnel determined Resident #45 was overcharged while she was in the facility for six months and the money was going to be returned to Resident #45 but neither AM #310 or BS #309 could state if this had actually been done. Phone interview on 07/23/24 at 2:22 P.M. with Corporate Accounts Receivable Director (CARD) #311 with AM #310 and BS #309 present revealed Resident #45 had a specialized contract that dictated she would be charged a set amount per month for care needs. CARD #311 stated around February 2024 there was discussion about a discrepancy between Resident #45's contract and her charges while she had been a resident of the skilled nursing facility. CARD #311 indicated the last correspondence with EE #299 regarding the overpayment had been on 06/28/24 and she was unaware of any further movement with the credit since this date. CARD #311 also shared refunds of resident accounts did not take this long and were usually resolved under 90 days. Review of a financial statement dated 03/31/24 revealed Resident #45's account had a credit of $25,514.10. Review of e-mails between the facility and EE #299 revealed he provided the facility with needed wire transfer information on 06/27/24 at 8:39 P.M. to obtain the overpayment. There were no e-mails after 06/28/24. Follow-up phone interview on 07/24/24 at 10:28 A.M. with CARD #311 confirmed she learned of Resident #45's life care contract in February 2024 and that is when the adjustments to her account were made leading to a credit of $25,514.10. CARD #311 verified there was no evidence the facility's corporation had disbursed the overpayment to Resident #45's estate as of the time of the interview. Review of the facility policy, Resident Personal Funds, revised 04/01/24 revealed upon the discharge, eviction or death of a resident the facility will convey within 30 days the residents' funds and (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 366289 If continuation sheet Page 2 of 3 Printed: 05/15/2026 Form Approved OMB No. 0938-0391 Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X2) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION 366289 B.
