Tim, a patient, mentioned to All Care’s Patient Navigator that he was facing financial obstacles after being admitted to the hospital and being later transferred to a rehabilitation facility to recover his strength.
Our Patient Navigator identified a potential solution: applying for facility Medicaid through an Elderly Waiver. She quickly began the process, gathering the necessary paperwork and coordinating with the appropriate agencies.
Our Navigator stayed closely involved throughout his hospital and rehab stays, ensuring all paperwork, case notes, and admission dates were communicated. Thanks to her diligence, Tim’s case worker was able to confirm that Medicaid would cover both his hospital and rehab costs, and he was approved for facility Medicaid.
