Visit Reason
The inspection was an unannounced complaint investigation triggered by a complaint received on 02/24/2021 regarding the inclusion of settlement and attorney fees costs in the community operating account affecting resident monthly care fees.
Findings
The Department substantiated the complaint, finding that the provider included costs related to a wage and hour lawsuit settlement and attorney fees in the operating account, which reduced the Community Operating Surplus (COS) and impacted monthly care fees. The Department required a corrective action plan to disclose the apportionment of settlement costs and adjust the COS accordingly.
Complaint Details
The complaint was substantiated based on a preponderance of evidence that the provider improperly included settlement and attorney fees costs in the operating account, affecting resident fees. The Department rejected residents' arguments that these costs should not be considered operating costs and required disclosure and adjustment prior to any COS changes.
