Based on a review of the facility's "Skilled Nursing Facility Advance Beneficiary Notice: (CMS form ), and the Notice of Provider Non-Coverage" (CMS form ), it was determined that the facility failed to provide the resident or authorized representative with the specific services that they determined would not be covered by Medicare payment and did not provide the estimated costs for those services in order to allow them to make an informed decision about whether or not they wanted to pay for the services prior to their discharges from Medicare Part A services between 5/24/10 and 9/7/10 in a sample of three residents discharged from Medicare Part A. Findings include: The facility believed that three residents were to be discharged from Medicare Part A services because they no longer required "skilled care." Although the facility issued CMS from on 5/24/10, 5/25/10 and 9/7/10, they did not include the specific skilled care services and the estimated cost for those services in order for the residents or authorized representatives to make an informed decision about whether or not they wanted to pay for continued services. The facility's description of the services for all three residents was documented as "room and board." The facility issued CMS form but, documented that the ending dates of coverage for the three residents' current skilled nursing services as the same date the notices (CMS forms and ) were issued. The residents or authorized representatives were not given notices prior to their discharges from Medicare Part A. |
