6368 BROOKDALE ANDERSON 425398 311 SIMPSON RD ANDERSON SC 29621 2014-10-15 156 B 0 1 E65111 Based on record review and interview, the facility failed to use the correct liability notices for 1 of 3 residents reviewed. The Skilled Nursing Facility Advance Beneficiary Notice (SNFABN) Form CMS- was not used for 1 resident reviewed who was discontinued from Medicare Part A with days remaining and stayed in the facility. The findings included: Review of liability notices for Resident #5 on 10/14/14 at 9:00 AM revealed the resident's skilled nursing/therapy services ended on 9/8/14 and the resident converted to private pay on 9/9/14. Further review revealed the Power of Attorney (POA) for Resident #5 signed Form -NOMNC (Notice of Medicare Non-Coverage), but the facility did not have the POA sign the SNFABN Form CMS- as required. Interview with the Business Office Director on 10/14/14 at 9:15 AM confirmed these findings and revealed that a company letter was used instead of the SNFABN Form CMS- . The Business Office Director further stated that the SNFABN Form CMS- was being used, but only for residents who did not remain in the facility. 2018-04-01
