What it reported doing in 2024

Nursing home and benevolent care: our community includes nursing care for those residents who are unable to help themselves. In 2024, moravian manor communities (mmc) provided over 27,887 days of skilled nursing care to residents with approximately 3,049 of those days being medicare a/managed care covered days with an additional 9,055 covered medicaid days. Over $1.8 million of subsided care was provided to residents in nursing. Within our personal care and assisted living area over 14,500 days of care was provided along with an additional $256,000 of benevolent care. As moravian manor communities strives to accommodate the changing lifestyles, expectations and need of the people we serve we are reminded of our mission and commitment to our residents.mmc maintains records to identify the cost of providing benevolent care based upon the direct and indirect costs identified with the specific benevolent care provided. The costs associated with benevolent care are estimated based on the difference in daily resident cost, as calculated in the annual cost report, and the amount of reimbursement received for benevolent care provided. The level of benevolent care provided amounted to approximately $1,800,000 in 2024 and $2,500,000 in 2023, including costs related to the medicaid program. In 2019, mmc changed its benevolent care policy to release from its resident assistance funds all of the benevolent care provided to its personal care and independent living residents and 20 percent of benevolent costs provided to its medicaid residents. Mmc utilized $996,300 and $1,156,909 during 2024 and 2023, respectively, from its resident assistance funds to support the benevolent care provided.our "community within a community" involvement includes various partnerships with local businesses and civic organizations as well as mmc sponsored events. Mmc welcomes public use of our on-site meeting spaces at a minimal charge. We continue to maintain a strong connectivity to the lititz rec center and participate in a work immersion program with our local iu-13 which provides a classroom setting for students on site at mmc. The program allows students the opportunity to learn about workplace expectations and provides internships in various departments for the students. Mmc also participates with local schools to provide on-site clinical rotations for nursing students. We continue to support our local fire department, warwick ambulance association, and warwick education foundation. We are fortunate enough to be located in the borough of lititz and will continue to support our hometown through the payment of real estate taxes that support schools and local governments of over $1.2 million, monetary donations, and community involvement which includes the ability for the senior leadership team to serve on several local community boards.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 90% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and liabilities are high compared with assets.
