When it looks like the money is about to run out, your long-term prognosis is suddenly worsened.
In an attempt to make a geriatric nursing home look like an appealing alternative to LTAC, the hospital discontinued all physical and occupational therapy today. The medical director claimed it’s due to lack of gains and possibility for future gains, despite what the PT/OT therapists report during the actual therapies.
I’m not sure what to say at this point. Chris was fortunate enough to be a Party Member, to outline things in Orwellian terms. He went to college, he chose a challenging field and he worked hard at his job. What do you do when your Party Membership is revoked?
You have the right to appeal the decision and the insurance company is required by law to pay for the second opinion. When you send the letter address it to the person who you speak with and include a picture of Christopher with the appeal.
Was it the insurance company that put a halt to the therapy? Or the facility? Is home healthcare an option?
