The regulation of long term care has escalated significantly over the past fifteen years. With the advent of OBRA, fines and penalties, OSHA, HIPPAA and other oversight programs, the regulatory scene has become increasingly complex and punitive. One false step can lead to disaster.

We offer a program of various interventions and preventative services designed to keep facilities in the good graces of the government overseers. If a facility has started down the path of increased punitive action we have been successful in turning the situation around in a timely and cost effective manner.

There is no solution like prevention, however. We have been the prevention experts since 1985. There are steps you can take to avoid the kind of regulatory involvement that can divert all of your time and energies away from the goal – taking care of your residents.

One of the keys to a successful survey is the plan of correction and the Iinformal Dispute Resolution process. We can help you with the preparation of these documents and any mandated inservices resulting from your survey.

The goal of all long term care facilities has to be the offering of quality care in an environment where you can spend your time reaching for the goal instead of responding to the demands of a punitive survey process. Healthcare Horizons, Ltd. Can help your achieve this goal. Contact us or e-mail for further information.
