Grievances and Appeals

How to Express a Concern or Problem with Care or Service: As a participant of Complete Senior Care (CSC), it is your right to voice your concerns and file a complaint at any time, without fear of reprisal from staff. In order to better serve you, we have grouped concerns and dissatisfaction into two categories:

Grievances

Compete Senior Care considers a “grievance” as any complaint, either written or oral, that expresses dissatisfaction with the care/services you receive. For information about how to file a grievance, please read the information accessed through Grievance document.

Appeals

When Complete Senior Care decides not to cover or pay for a service you want, you may take action to change our decision. The action you take – whether verbally or in writing – is called an “appeal.” For information about how to file an appeal, please read the information in our Grievance document.

For your convenience, there are several ways to file a grievance or an appeal. You can complete one of the following options:
