Let us help identify the setting to optimize the patient’s recovery and make the most of his or her insurance coverage.
During our intake process, we ask detailed questions about the patient’s needs in order to determine the most appropriate and cost-effective setting based on the level of nursing care, array of supportive services, and estimated length of stay needed to achieve the patient’s goals and satisfy any insurance requirements.
