Long Term Care & Senior Living Blog

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services has unveiled two new websites for consumers that include information comparing rehabilitation facilities and long-term care facilities. CMS says that these websites are optimized for mobile use. The sites are located at medicare.gov/inpatientrehabilitationfacilitycompare/ and medicare.gov/longtermcarehospitalcompare/

Over the next few weeks, the Sandberg Phoenix Long-Term Care and Senior Housing Team will be rolling out its analysis of the new CMS Final Rule revising the requirements that Long-Term Care facilities must meet to participate in the Medicare and Medicaid programs. We will address each revision and how it impacts both the care provided to residents and how that care is to be provided.
