W&L Hot Tips 15 (February 2010) – Get ACFI Appraisals Done More Quickly

Getting ACFI reappraisals done more quickly to increase monthly income!!

  • Do you know of any residents in your facility that you’re under claiming for?
  • Can’t find the time to do all the documentation?
  • Are you already providing the care but not getting any funding for it?

We’ve noticed that at many facilities there are residents that are being under claimed for, but the staff just don’t have time to get all of the ADL assessments done, perform PAS and Cornell’s and then ensure congruency with the care plans.

Every day you wait could be costing your facility hundreds of dollars – this then impacts staffing hours, resources for the residents and ultimately their care.

A W&L Occupational Therapist can assist by performing ADL nutrition, personal hygiene and toileting assessments that have been specifically designed to provide you with a summary of their needs for care planning, and to easily match up with ACFI documentation requirements.

W&L Occupational Therapists can also perform the behaviour supplement assessments, the PAS and Cornell.

Consider this: if you have ONE resident that you know should be an ADL medium instead of a low, you’re currently losing $35.08 per day…if they have been like this for three months your facility has just lost $3,201.05.

If you have any residents that have been on your ‘to do list’ for more than a month, or if you are interested in finding out more information, please contact Wellness & Lifestyles on 08 8331 3000.
