32 | On July 20, 2020, LPA Lund interviewed the Administrator Justice O Ehimamiegho and learned the local Hospital contacted the facility on July 5, 2020 and advised the R1 was ready for discharge. The Administrator did not conduct a re-appraisal (current condition) of R1 at the hospital, did not obtain an approved exception for the prohibited health condition, and did not have a written agreement with the home health agency regarding services, frequency or duration of care for the resident. R1 returned to the facility on July 5, 2020. On July 20, 2020, LPA Lund requested the above documentation and a request for an exception, however, the facility did not have the documents on file. It was also learned on this day, that R1 returned to the hospital for other ailments but would not return to the facility as the Administrator believed R1 needed a higher level of care.
Based on this investigation, the facility failed to obtain an exception, re-appraise R1 when conditions changed and failed to have a written home health agreement prior to retaining R1 with a prohibited health condition.
