What should you ask Lorian Health before starting care?
Ask what 'done' looks like
52.3% of patients reached the level of function Medicare expected by discharge (California average 61.5%). Ask what goals they would set for your situation and what happens if progress stalls.
Ask about fall prevention
1.1% of its patients had a fall with a major injury during care, against 0.6% across California. Ask for a home safety review at the first visit and what they change after a fall.
Ask whether your plan treats it as in-network
Original Medicare pays any certified agency. Medicare Advantage plans use networks, and an out-of-network agency can mean a denied claim. Give them the exact plan name on the card.
Ask who answers after hours
Problems rarely wait for office hours. Ask whether the night and weekend line reaches one of their own nurses or an answering service, and how long a call-back usually takes.
