From a note on my patient’s chart today:
Dr. _______
Mrs. ________ has exhausted her SNF [Skilled Nursing Facility] coverage. She has used her full 100 days and does not qualify for Medical Assistance [Medicaid]. She would have to privately pay for an SNF and she cannot afford this.
Doctor’s Reply: What can I do about this?
Response: The patient and family are aware and husband says he will hire help but cannot afford private pay at SNF.
