A nursing home or skilled nursing
facility (SNF), also known as a rest home, is a
type of
care of residents: it is a place of residence for people who require
constant nursing care and have significant deficiencies with activities of
daily living. Residents include the elderly and younger adults with
physical disabilities. Adults 18 or older can stay in a skilled nursing
facility to receive physical, occupational, and other rehabilitative
therapies following an accident or illness.
Services provided in nursing homes include services of nurses, nursing
aides and assistants; physical, occupational and speech therapists; social
workers and recreational assistants; and room and board. Most care in
nursing facilities is provided by certified nursing assistants, not by
skilled personnel.
Nursing facilities that participate in the Medicare and Medicaid programs
are subject to federal requirements regarding staffing and quality of care
for residents (42 CFR Part 483). In 2004, 98.5% of the 16,100 nursing
facilities nationwide were certified to participate in Medicare, Medicaid,
or both.
Medicare covers nursing home services for beneficiaries who require
skilled nursing care and/or rehabilitation services following a
hospitalization of at least three consecutive days. The program does not
cover nursing care if only custodial care is needed

-- for
example, when a person needs assistance with bathing, walking, or
transferring from a bed to a chair. To be eligible for
Medicare-covered skilled nursing facility (SNF) care, a physician must
certify that the beneficiary needs daily skilled nursing care or other
skilled rehabilitation services that are related to the
hospitalization, and that these services, as a practical matter, can
be provided only on an inpatient basis. For example, a beneficiary
released from the hospital after a stroke and in need of physical
therapy, or a beneficiary in need of skilled nursing care for wound
treatment following a surgical procedure, might be eligible for
Medicare-covered SNF care.
SNF services may be offered in a free-standing or hospital-based
facility. A freestanding facility is generally part of a nursing home
that covers Medicare SNF services as well as long-term care services
for people who pay out-of-pocket, through Medicaid, and/or through a
long-term care insurance policy. Generally, Medicare SNF patients make
up just a small portion of the total resident population of a
free-standing nursing home.
Medicaid also covers nursing home care for certain persons who require
custodial care, meet a state's means-tested income and asset tests,
and require the level-of-care offered in a nursing home. Nursing home
residents have physical or cognitive impairments and require 24-hour
care.
Many patients who live in nursing homes often begin paying
out-of-pocket. Some deplete their resources on the often high cost of
care. If eligible, Medicaid will cover continued stays in nursing home
for these individuals. |
