Summary
The facility failed to provide a required Notification of Medicare Non-Coverage (NOMNC) to a resident who was admitted and later discharged to an adult family home. Record review showed no evidence that the NOMNC letter was given to the resident prior to discharge, despite the discharge being planned and documented in social services notes. During an interview, the Social Service Director confirmed that the NOMNC letter was not provided to the resident before discharge, as required by regulation.
