Recently, the conflict between reimbursement and quality care received national attention.(3) Vencor, the U.S.''s second largest nursing home chain, attempted to terminate its Medicaid contracts and evict all its Medicaid residents.(4) Executives explained that the contract terminations and resident evictions were strategies to make room for higher paying private pay residents.(5) Faced with state, and potentially federal, fines,(6) as well as a district court injunction and public outrage over the patient dumping, the company quickly abandoned its policy and apologized.(7) The attempted resident evictions quickly prompted new legislation less than a year later, which forbids facilities from evicting Medicaid patients based solely on payment status. Although the strategy resulted in a public relations disaster, the company claims that the real "bad guy" is the government because what the government pays "is not adequate to cover the cost for what [the company] believe[s] is the proper care for a patient."(8) This statement reflects providers'' frustration with current government payment levels and expected standards of care throughout the nation.
