Good on you EGF for your diligence. I'm sure financial abuse is the norm and they are not used to a resident having an advocate closely monitoring what is happening. Also an advocate that is not going to be overwhelmed by the layers of paperwork nonsense they will use to support their position. Wishing you strength to continue the good fight on behalf of your dad.

Thank goddess he has long term care insurance that reimburses about 70% of the bills, but I have to pay the bills first and submit them and sign off that they are accurate, and they are not! I've been asking since 10/1 why his bill is more than 1k over what it should be and haven't gotten a clear answer other than that we will see "a credit" in next month's bill. No detail on how much or why or what happened. And they charged (and then reversed after I pushed back) a $250 late fee because I wouldn't pay the bill without an explanation for the very large overcharge. And they want me to fill out automatic withdrawal from his bank account! No, thank you.
