Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about CRC

How much does CRC cost our facility?

CRC provides its services at NO COST to your facility. In addition, it has no impact on facility billings. Like all other clinicians, we bill insurances directly under professional (“Part B”) medical services. Our services to patients are covered by patient insurance. The facility’s billings are under facility (“Part A”) services.

What kind of clinicians does CRC provide?

Our team is composed of Medical Assistants, Registered Nurses, Nurse Practitioners, Physician Assistants, Physicians, Psychiatrists and Physiatrists.

How do you collaborate and work with Primary Care Physicians?

Our clinicians are here to collaborate with and not replace your PCPs. Any medical issues and changes are always first presented to the PCP. We have specific communication and emotional intelligence training for our clinicians that help them understand their role as a consultant. We help alleviate from PCPs the large responsibility given to them as the sole provider in the SNF and conduct many of the non-billable patient management activities that PCPs often do not have the time for.

I thought Physiatrists were for Inpatient Rehab Facilities only?

Traditionally physical medicine and rehabilitation doctors (i.e., physiatrists) have been associated with Inpatient Rehabilitation Facilities (IRFs), where they are required to be on staff. However, with the push down of acuity to SNFs and increasing medical complexity in their rehab patients, having a physiatry presence at a nursing facility that collaborates with the rehab team is proven by medical studies and literature to improve clinical outcomes.

Do you see all of our patients? Do you accept all insurances?

Yes we see all of your patients and accept all insurances including Medicaid and Medicare!

How long would it take to onboard your services in my facility?

Our onboarding process takes 4-6 weeks from when we decide to partner to when our clinicians begin seeing patients in your facility.

Would this service help with our staffing crisis?

Absolutely! Our clinicians will help provide an elevated level of care for your patients. Our clinicians, at the request of home leadership, can decrease the burden of time-consuming patient management activities required of PCPs by conducting monthly RCA’s (root cause analysis), attending Medicare meetings, family care meetings, QAPIs and speaking with insurance on peer to peer appeals. Having an in-person medical presence with regular times and a reliable schedule not only provides more staff but also helps improve care and staff morale and retention.

Will this program help with compliance?

Our collaboration with SNFs and our strong clinical documentation helps with risk reduction and enhanced audit defense as well as improving your CMI.
