Rennova Health has been contacted for comment.that the department had used Medicare Fee-for-Service payment information as the basis for making these distributions, which allowed initial payments to be made to providers"as quickly as possible without requiring an individualized application process.
"The funds went to providers across the entire country—to those in areas heavily impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and to those who are struggling to keep their doors open as healthy patients delay care and cancel elective services," the spokesperson said. The JRMC closed on June 13, 2019 after it stopped receiving Medicare and Medicaid payments for new patients, according to reports last year.
