So you are fixing to open an assisted living center and Hospice? I think that is fantastic! Your in for a lot of hard work and virtually no time off but do what’s in your heart.
I’m assuming you’ll be following Medicare guidelines but will you be able to run it without taking Medicare/ Medicaid pts?
I worked for a not for Hospice once but they still received Medicare benefits. Wasn’t sure how that worked.
So the guy who was nurse for years witnessed this li.d of abuse towards pts? I can’t imagine it. Maybe I’ve been fortunate being in the South. The rare times I’ve dealt with abuse was neglect by families.
This will just be home hospice care, not inpatient or assisted living. We will contract with local assisted living and nursing homes as well as the local hospital for respite care. Someday is we are successful, we’ll build a free standing hospice unit.
We will be a participating provider with Medicare and all the major insurances. Non profit or for profit status does not affect Medicare or insurance participation.
