In this event. the Resident will pay based on the private rates. charges, and terms in effect at the time of service. . Resident's Share of Cost.

This is to inform you that SeniorBlue has determined that you are no longer eligible for continued care in a skilled nursing facility. Based upon our review of your medical condition, it does not appear that you meet Medicare guidelines for continued skilled nursing care. Skilled care must be furnished by or under the supervision of skilled personnel to assure the safety of the patient and to achieve the medically appropriate result. However, when an individual does not require skilled nursing services on a daily basis or uthe daily services could effectively be provided in an alternative setting, the services they do receive while in a skilled nursing facility are not covered. Thus your continued stay in Camp Hill Care Center will not be covered as of May 17, 1999, because you will not need skilled nursing care or skilled rehabilitation services on a daily basis in an inpatient setting. If you choose to continue your stay in Camp Hill Care Center, you will be responsible for the cost of all services provided by the facility except services covered under Part B of Medicare. Instead of care in a skilled nursing facility, we can provide the following covered services for you: home care services should you return home or an outpatient therapy evaluation. Please have your physician call our SeniorBlue Utilization Management department at 1-800-547-2273 if assistance is needed in coordinating care. If you believe the determination is not correct, you have the right to request 3."l appe,u by following the procedure listed below: 30 Day Appeal Process for Service Denials (60 Days for claims payment denials) . If you want to file an appeal which will be processed within (30/60) days, do the following: . File the request in wIjting with SeniorBlue at the following address: SeniorBlue Appeals - Grievance Committee, PO Box 890164, and Camp Hill, P A 17089-0164.

If we do not rule fully in your favor, we will forward your appeal request to the Health Care Financing Administration's contractor (The Center for Health Dispute Resolution) for a decision. Expedited Appeal Process We normally have 30 days to process your appeal. In some cases, you have a right to a faster 72- hour appeal. You can get a fast appeal if your health could be seriously harmed by waiting 30 days for a standard appeal. If you ask for a fast appeal, we will decide if you get a 72-hour/fast appeal. If not, your appeal will be processed in 30 days. If any doctor asks SeniorBlue to give you a fast appeal, we must give it to you. An extension up to 14 working days is permitted for a 72-hour appeal if the extension of time benefits you; for example, if you need time to provide SeniorBlue with additional information or if we need to have additional diagnostic tests completed. . The 72 hours appeals process does not apply to denials of payment. Written or oral requests can be filed by following the procedures below: . On your oral or w1~tten request, specifically state that "1 W3.'1t 3.'1 expedited appeal, fast appeal or 72 hour appeal" or "I believe that my health could be seriously harmed by waiting 30 days for a normal appeal." .

For example, you may want to include in your appeal request information such as medical records or physician opinions in support of your appeal. To obtain medical records, send a written request to your primary care physician_ If your medical records from specialist physicians are not included in your medical record from your primary care physician, you may need to make a separate written request to the specialist physician(s) who provided medical services to you.
