Notice of the meeting was made public in advance thereof by posting notice in three places, one of the designated methods for giving advance notice.

A quorum was established with the presence of Randy Johnson, Rosa Schmidt, Kathy Rennerfeldt and Dan Tanksley, Jr. Also, present was Administrator David Deemer. Mr. Deemer was asked to present and lead discussion for items on the agenda. The board received several thank you cards related to the Christmas bonus that was extended to staff for hours worked. The board would also like to thank Oakland Heights Team Members for their dedication to the residents. The new kitchen hood is ordered and will be scheduled for install in January. The Heights has been given a mid-February deadline to complete the install and be operational. Health insurance renewals resulted in a 9.9% increase in premiums. Dental and vision also resulted in an estimated increase of 4.5%. CMS calculations for reimbursement were miscalculated and there are some facilities that will need to reimburse them and other facilities that were underpaid. Oakland Heights will most likely have to pay in but a very minimal amount. David Deemer will work with Bland & Associates to determine how the CMS calculations from Rug rates to PDPM model will impact private pay rates. More details to come in the next month or two.
