Dear Rex,
If you are receiving care from a SNF and are told that Medicare will no longer pay for your care (meaning that you will be discharged), you have the right to a fast (expedited) appeal if you do not believe your care should end. There is a different process if you are enrolled in a Medicare Advantage Plan. Note that this process is different if your care is being reduced but not ending, and you do not agree with that reduction.
If you are enrolled in Original Medicare:
• If your care is ending at a SNF because your provider believes Medicare will not pay for it, you should receive a Notice of Medicare Non-Coverage. You should get this notice no later than two days before your care is set to end.

Take Salad Season to the Next Level
Warmer months typically call for lighter bites, and one of the first things that comes to mind for many is a fresh and flavorful salad. While a salad is a quick and easy way to up your veggie intake and get food on the table in next to no time, the same formula over and over again can make mealtimes feel mundane. To take your salads to the next level, think of those greens as a blank slate for creativity and look beyond the bowl for elements that can help create new, satisfying meals. Find more ideas to elevate salad season at freshexpress.com.
