Along the same
line....... How early can a denial letter be issued? We have Medicare Meeting
1x week and usually decide in that meeting when resident will be coming off
Medicare. I like to go ahead and issue letter immed so family can plan
accordingly (esp if resident is staying in facility and will be pvt pay). My
current facility's practice when I came on board wsa to issue letter on last
covered day. My former facility's consultant had told me the letter should be
issued on last covered day or the next to last day. Does anyone know what the
regulation says?

Issue the denial
immediately upon discovery. You can't go back as the resident and responsible
party are supposed to be notified day of denial. (Save your self from ALJ hearing
hassles in the future!!)

When it is determined the resident is no longer
skilled, how soon does the family/responsible party have to be
notified? What if you discover the resident should have been cut
several days ago. Do you cut them the day you discover they are no
longer skilled or the day they should have been cut?

Does the resident walk in her room, in the hall or the therapy room? If
the only place the resident walks is in the therapy room then they would
have 8 on walking in room and hall. Michelle
