What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Virginia Department of Health is currently conducting home surveys related to Medicare certification in Virginia. Last November, over 200 of the 289 nursing homes surveyed by the Virginia Department of Health were past due for inspections to meet federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid standards. State nursing home inspectors have reduced their backlog of past-due inspections by roughly a third over the past year.

These inspections ensure that nursing homes comply with federal standards necessary for receiving Medicare or Medicaid payments. To clear the backlog, the Virginia Department of Health has been hiring staff and rethinking how inspection teams are assigned, noting that urgent resident complaints take priority.
