It holds dual certification for both Medicare and Medicaid, making it eligible to serve beneficiaries enrolled in either program. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) assigns star ratings to nursing facilities on a scale of 1 to 5, with higher ratings indicating stronger performance across measured categories. Arbor Post Acute holds an overall CMS star rating of 1 out of 5, which falls below the national average of 3.0 stars. The health inspection rating, which reflects findings from on-site state surveys including deficiencies and complaint investigations, is also rated 1 out of 5. The staffing rating, which measures nurse and aide hours per resident per day relative to facility census, is rated 2 out of 5. The quality measure rating, which is derived from clinical outcome data reported for long-stay and short-stay residents, is rated 4 out of 5, placing that particular dimension above the national average. Arbor Post Acute is certified to accept both Medicare and Medicaid as forms of payment. Medicare typically covers short-term skilled nursing and rehabilitation stays following a qualifying hospital admission, subject to benefit period rules and cost-sharing requirements. Medicaid coverage for long-term care is administered at the state level in California through Medi-Cal, and eligibility is subject to income and asset criteria. Individuals and families seeking information about coverage determinations and benefit details are encouraged to consult directly with the facility or the relevant program administrators. When compared to the national average overall CMS rating of 3.0 stars, Arbor Post Acute's overall rating of 1 star indicates performance below average on the composite measure. The health inspection component, also rated 1 star, similarly reflects below-average standing on survey-based indicators. The staffing component at 2 stars is below the national average as well, though by a smaller margin. The quality measure rating of 4 stars is a notable exception, reflecting above-average performance on the clinical outcome metrics captured in that domain.
