Overview
Mission
Dedicated to providing the most enlightened and compassionate continuum of care to seniors on our campus and throughout Palm Beach County in the spirit of Jewish traditions.
What it reported doing in 2024
Outpatient - this program provides skilled service including nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy to medicare recipients who meet the conditions of participation for home bound services. This medicare certified program is strictly monitored by cms (center for medicaid and medicare services) and a fiscal intermediary (in this case palmetto gba) under strict federal guidelines.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Other-operating. 99% of the money available for current operations came from other operating 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. Few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence and some related-organization disclosures are missing.
