Debts to nursing homes are often caused by not getting a resident on Medicaid, mistakes by unsophisticated residents or family, or misappropriation of funds. At times, the resident may qualify for Medicaid but cannot afford to retain a Medicaid planner. Work with the nursing home to meet the needs of the resident and untangle payment issues.
Watch so you can:
- Moderate between the resident, family, and nursing facility
- Get cooperation of the family and resident to move through the Medicaid process
- Propose solutions and workouts
- Review and follow appropriate BEMs and BAMs
