Tuesday, 4:00pm Health Commission Meeting<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Agenda will come out the Friday pm prior (Friday Jan 3): this is a general health commission meeting and may have limited information about LHH. Agenda will be posted at&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/campaign-statistics.com\/link_click\/b6w30V-767yYZQ-4xBO6o\/ffa3e0e861d1847e4ff9622390afe18e\">https:\/\/www.sf.gov\/departments\/san-francisco-health-commission\/upcoming-meetings<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brief Concerns about Laguna Honda:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1.&nbsp;<strong>There is lack of transparency about the admissions process.<\/strong>&nbsp;There are multiple empty beds (over 300) with very slow admission rates. Is Laguna Honda\/SFDPH really reaching out to those in need in the community<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2.&nbsp;<strong>Focus on short term post acute rehab will not fill the beds, or meet the needs of many San Franciscans:&nbsp;<\/strong>In order to generate more revenue, there has been a focus by the SF Health Dept. and the Health Commission on short term post acute \u201crehab\u201d stays (generates the most dollars, especially for patients insured by Medicare and\/or private insurance).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>LHH post acute rehab is surely needed. However, our public facility should serve the nursing home needs of all San Franciscans and not just the ones with short term post-acute rehab needs<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. San Franciscans are aging and need long term beds:<\/strong>&nbsp;Long term or \u201ccustodial\u201d stays at a nursing home are paid for (at lower rates than \u201crehab\u201d) only by Medi-cal(Medicaid), only partially by expensive long term care insurance which few can afford, or cash. Medicare and other health insurance does not pay for long term care. Yet, in a city with an aging population, the need for long term nursing home care is increasing. Multiple nursing home beds have closed in the past 20 years. San Franciscans who need nursing home care and don\u2019t get it are at risk of suffering and dying at home or in residential facilities (which are non medical).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4.&nbsp;<strong>Why are ALL types of admissions so slow?<\/strong>&nbsp;As of the end of November, less than 420 of the 769 licensed nursing home beds were occupied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>5. Has a decision been made to \u201close\u201d 120 nursing home beds?<\/strong>&nbsp;CMS (the federal government) will not allow Laguna Honda to fill 120 licensed nursing home beds because of a 2016 regulation that says all nursing homes opened after 2016 have to have no more than a 2 bed to bathroom ratio. Although Laguna Honda has been continuously open (despite being decertified in April 2022), CMS is using the decertification to treat LHH like a new nursing home. In fact the LHH building was finished about 2010. The 120 3 bed suites are spacious, airy and private although they do share a bathroom. SFDPH leaders have stated in the past that CMS is likely to grant an application for a \u201cwaiver\u201d to this regulation only when LHH \u201cproves\u201d that improvement is \u201csustained.\u201d Only then can those 120 beds be filled. At this time quite a few state and federal surveyors have come and gone. LHH has been fully certified for months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Info from Gray Panthers SF<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SAVE THE DATES<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1.
