RENNOVA HEALTH, INC. OWNED HOSPITAL RECEIVES CRITICAL ACCESS HOSPITAL
CERTIFICATION
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., Dec. 03, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rennova Health, Inc.
(OTC: RNVA) today announced that the application by its hospital, Scott County
Community Hospital, Inc. (DBA Big South Fork) in Oneida, TN, for designation
as a Critical Access Hospital (CAH) has been approved by Centers for Medicare
and Medicaid Services (CMS). The effective date of approval is retrospective
to June 30, 2021.
CAH status means the hospital will be entitled to a cost-based reimbursement
from Medicare, which has the potential to increase revenue. There are a number
of benefits of CAH including that capital improvement costs are included in
allowable costs for determining Medicare reimbursement. This special
reimbursement that CAHs receive is intended to improve their financial
performance and thereby maintain access to basic health care in rural areas by
providing rural health networks and rural emergency medical services.
“We are delighted to be granted Critical Access Hospital Certification for
this hospital,” said Seamus Lagan, CEO of Rennova Health. “The opportunity for
increased revenue and reimbursement is a welcome boost to the facility for the
needed service it provides to the local community.”
