3212 FOUNTAIN BLUE REHAB AND NURSING 115636 3051 WHITESIDE ROAD MACON GA 31216 2019-03-07 582 B 0 1 PBN411 Based on record review and staff interview the facility failed to provide a Skilled Nursing Facility Advanced Beneficiary Notice (SNFABN) to two of three sampled residents (R#74 and R#63) who were reviewed after being discharged from Medicare Part A Services and remained in the facility. Findings include: Review of the record for R# 74 revealed the resident started occupational therapy services on 02/01/2019 and services ended on 02/15/2019. Review of the record for R# 63 revealed the resident started occupational therapy services on 11/01/2018 and services ended on 02/15/2019. An interview on 3/07/2019 at 1:46 PM with the Business Office Manager revealed that she was new to the position and was not aware that the resident R#73 and R#63 needed to receive a Beneficiary Protection Notification Review upon discharge from Medicaid Part A services. A post survey interview with the Business Office Manager (BOM) on 3/21/19 at 2:41 p.m. revealed that she had been in her position for several months and was trained by the previous BOM. She revealed that the previous BOM had instructed her to use another Center for Medicare Services (CMS) form (for part B) and was giving those to the residents. She has gotten the correct forms from the CMS website but is still unsure of all the information that is needed to complete the forms. 2020-09-01
