60 Seconds with Swett: Medicare Advantage Sees A Pay Bump
As the healthcare industry braces for whatever impacts tariffs may have on operations, an impossible task to predict accurately given the flux on that matter, providers also are welcoming a new head of CMS, Dr. Mehmet Oz, who was confirmed by the Senate last week. There is some uncertainty on how the Trump Administration will treat healthcare providers overall, specifically in the senior care industry, with some positives coming from the end of the minimum staffing mandate and an overall friendlier business climate, versus the threat of increased scrutiny on Medicare and Medicaid spending with respect to fraud and abuse potentially contributing to falling revenues.

Pacifica Senior Living Chapter 7 Filing Update
After we and several other news outlets reported on the Chapter 7 bankruptcy filing of Pacifica Senior Living LLC on March 24, we heard from the company about the filing and our story.
