On 01/25/23 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Joscelyn Martinez arrived at the facility to conduct an unannounced subsequent complaint visit. Upon arrival LPA met with Sona Gevorkyan and the purpose of the visit was conducted.

Allegation: Staff are not releasing resident's records in a timely manner.

It is alleged that the facility did not provide the documents to R1’s Long Term Care Insurance upon written notice. LPA interviewed R1 and stated that the facility did not provide the documents the insurance was requesting which resulted in R1’s claim being closed. Interview with S1 stated they had faxed over some documents to the requestor but did not have a confirmation date nor date in where the documents were faxed. Interview with S2 stated that the documents were sent to the requestor a week after LPA conducted an initial visit on 10/31/22. LPA obtained a copy of the letter request that was provided to the facility.
