Gifts to the Blessed Assurance Endowment help to assure access to care
in LHO
facilities for residents who are not able to pay for the full cost of
care, and to
bridge the gap between public assistance reimbursement and the actual
cost of care.
Almost 60% of Bethel Home Residents have Medical Assistance (MA) as their payment source. This is the highest of any private not-for-profit nursing home in the area. In 2006, Bethel Home faced a $1.4 million shortage in MA reimbursement, compared to our actual costs for caring for our residents.
You have the choice of making a donation to support the annual Blessed Assurance needs or to have it applied to the Blessed Assurance Endowment.
