Last week McKnight’s Long-Term Care News and Assisted Living, published an article about a presentation by Tom Scully, the former chief of the Medicare & Medicaid Administration, in which he chastised the nursing home industry. I think he has it all wrong. You can access the original article and my response here. Steve Moran

Discussion: Former CMS administrator scolds long-term care providers — but he has it all wrong!
Scully has rarely had anything good to say about nursing homes which has been part of the governments strategy to publicly demonize long term care in order to create mistrust and doubt resulting in fewer admissions to long term care facilities therefore reducing CMS and state Medicaid budgets.
