In-network homes with a real bed.

Case managers and care coordinators usually know of several members who need a home, not just one. Send me one member or your whole list, no names. I'll ask homes that take your plan for the bed and the monthly room and board.

No home pays me for a Medicaid member. I never pay or take anything from a plan or its staff for sending a member.

What I know about your day

  • The hard part is an in-network home with a bed open right now.
  • You often carry several members waiting on assisted living at the same time.
  • Room and board usually comes from the member's own income, and that number decides a lot.
  • Families often think Medicaid covers everything.

How I help

  • I ask only homes that say they take your plan.
  • Each home tells me its monthly room and board for a long-term care resident, so nobody is surprised.
  • I explain to the family, in English or Spanish, what the plan covers and what comes from income.
  • No home ever pays me for a Medicaid member, and that never changes which homes I show you.

Papers the home will usually ask for

  1. AHCA Form 1823, signed by a doctor, APRN or PA.
  2. The plan's authorization for assisted living.
  3. The Medicaid eligibility notice.
  4. Current medication list.
  5. The Social Security award letter or other income letters, so the home can confirm room and board.
  6. ID, Medicaid and insurance cards, given at admission.

Every home has its own admission list, and the home decides. Once the family or guardian picks a home, fax these straight to that home. Miami Placement sends you the number. Please don't email records or attach them here.

One page for each long-term care plan

Each page shows where the plan's members live, from the state's Medicaid enrollment report, and the member homes that told us they work with the plan.

Medicaid long-term care plans

Send your whole list

Most plans have several members waiting at once. Put them all in one request, one row each, with no names and no member ID. Use your own reference, like a case number you keep in your notes, so you know who is who when the answers come back.

#2

#3

Need more rows? Send this list, then send another.

Each row goes out as its own request. Homes in your network answer each one with the bed and the room and board. You get one summary for the whole list.

Open beds in your network, every week

Want a short email every Monday with the open beds at homes that take your plan, by area, with the monthly room and board each home confirmed? It carries no member information at all. Turn it off any time.

Areas

For plans licensed for long-term care

I keep track of which homes take which long-term care plans, what each one charges a long-term care resident for room and board, and which homes keep a resident who switches from private pay to Medicaid. Ask me any time, even when you don't have a member waiting.

Suggested form for your work

The same request every professional uses, with the questions that matter in your work added. No patient name, no date of birth, no record number. Homes see the needs, not the person.

One-page summary of homes considered, for your file

How we're paid: homes pay us only when a private pay resident we introduced moves in. Never for a Medicaid resident. Nobody pays to be shown first. I run Mary's House ALF and have a personal interest in it, and I'll say so if it comes up as an option.

Matching homes get the needs and answer yes or no with the bed and the price. You see each answer as it comes in.
