What Indiana Facilities Are Searching For — And What We Deliver

Directors of Nursing across Indiana search using phrases like: wound care provider for nursing home Indiana, mobile wound care physician SNF Indiana, wound care rounding service Indiana skilled nursing, wound care physician partner Indiana, and bedside wound care physician Indiana. Every one of those searches describes exactly what our clinical team does.

We are not a staffing agency. We are not a wound care supply company. We are a physician-led medical practice whose clinical team — physicians and nurse practitioners operating under physician medical direction — comes to your facility on a scheduled weekly basis to evaluate wounds, perform procedures, document medical necessity, and manage the clinical complexity that your nursing team is not equipped to handle alone and was never expected to handle alone.

Our Medical Director, Dr. Kinya Kamau, MD, a Board-Certified Internal Medicine physician with over 20 years of clinical experience, sets the clinical protocols and standards of care that govern every patient encounter across our Indiana program. Every provider on our team operates under her medical direction and oversight.

Discharge planners searching for post-acute wound care Indiana or wound care referral SNF Indiana can refer patients directly. We accept Medicare Part B, Medicare Advantage, Medicaid, and commercial insurance. Referrals are processed within 24 hours.

The Indiana Mobile Wound Care Model — How It Works in Your Facility

Our mobile wound care program is built around one principle: the clinician comes to the patient. Not the other way around. Here is what that looks like inside an Indiana skilled nursing facility or assisted living community on a week-to-week basis.

Weekly scheduled rounding

Every facility partner receives a set weekly rounding day. Our clinical team member arrives at your facility, receives the pre-round briefing from your Director of Nursing or wound care nurse, reviews the interval nursing wound log, and evaluates every patient on the active wound census. New referrals from your nursing team are evaluated on the same visit — no separate scheduling required for new patients identified since the previous round.

This predictable weekly schedule separates structured wound care from episodic consultation. Your nursing team knows when our provider is coming. Your residents receive consistent oversight. Your MDS coordinator has physician-directed documentation on a reliable timeline to support care plan meetings.

Pre-round clinical review

Before evaluating a single wound, our provider reviews:

• Nursing wound log and interval measurements since the last visit
• Braden score trends and any new risk escalations
• Nutritional intake records and albumin/prealbumin values when available
• Glycemic control data for diabetic residents
• New hospital discharges with wound-related diagnoses
• Any urgent wound concerns flagged by your nursing staff

Bedside wound evaluation protocol

Each wound encounter follows a standardized evaluation protocol developed by our Medical Director and applied consistently across all Indiana facilities:

• Length, width, depth in centimeters — compared against prior measurements
• Percent area reduction calculation — the objective healing trajectory marker
• Tissue characterization by percentage: granulation, slough, eschar, epithelial tissue
• Undermining and tunneling assessment with clock position
• Exudate volume, type, and odor assessment
• Periwound skin integrity evaluation
• Infection assessment with clinical criteria documentation
• Offloading compliance verification for pressure injuries and diabetic foot wounds
• Compression compliance verification for venous ulcers
• Support surface adequacy assessment for at-risk residents

Procedures performed at the bedside

Our clinical team performs procedures at the bedside that previously required transporting residents to hospital outpatient wound clinics:

• Sharp and excisional debridement of necrotic tissue, slough, callus, and suspected biofilm
• Initiation and management of negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT/wound VAC)
• Application of collagen matrix products
• Evaluation and application of cellular and tissue-based products (skin substitutes)
• Multilayer compression therapy initiation and management
• Ultramist therapy for chronic stalled wounds
• Wound culture collection when infection is clinically suspected

Why Indiana SNF Administrators Choose Our Program

Survey protection and F-tag risk reduction

Indiana skilled nursing facilities face CMS survey scrutiny on four wound-related areas our program directly addresses:

F-tag 686 — Treatment/Services to Prevent/Heal Pressure Ulcers: Our structured weekly rounding with physician-directed evaluation and treatment demonstrates active, individualized wound management at the clinical level required for survey defense.

F-tag 684 — Quality of Care: Every provider note documents clinical decision-making, treatment rationale, and plan modification — creating a defensible record showing the facility obtained appropriate physician-directed oversight.

F-tag 689 — Free of Accident Hazards/Supervision: Our prevention integration — Braden reassessment, repositioning audit, support surface verification — creates the documented prevention framework surveyors evaluate when a new pressure injury develops.

Hospital readmission metrics: Our structured escalation protocols and onsite procedure capability reduce wound-related hospital transfers, directly affecting your SNF Value-Based Purchasing score and CMS star rating.

Medicare Part B billing — no cost to the facility

Our clinical services are billed directly to Medicare Part B and other applicable insurance for each patient. There is no per-visit charge to the facility, no contract fee, and no minimum patient volume requirement. Facilities pay nothing. This means adding physician-directed wound care oversight does not add a line item to your operating budget — it adds a clinical service that reduces regulatory risk, improves quality metrics, and delivers better outcomes for your residents at zero cost to the facility.

Integration with your existing wound care team

Our clinical team does not replace your wound-certified nurses or wound care committee. We add the physician-directed layer your nursing team needs to function at its highest level.

Your nurses continue: Daily dressing changes, weekly wound measurements, Braden assessments, wound photography, and wound committee participation.

Our clinical team provides: Medical diagnosis and wound classification, procedure performance including debridement and advanced therapy, Medicare Part B documentation, advanced therapy authorization, vascular referral coordination, and systemic medication coordination affecting wound healing.

Medicare Coverage for Indiana Facilities and Patients

Our services are covered under Medicare Part B when services are medically necessary and properly documented. Part B coverage applies independently of Part A SNF benefits — residents receiving Part A skilled nursing benefits retain their full Part B coverage.

Our Medicare-compliant wound documentation meets every standard at every encounter. For advanced therapies including skin substitutes, we build the required conservative therapy documentation from the very first visit so advanced therapy eligibility is established when the clinical criteria are met.

Assisted Living Wound Care in Indiana

Our Indiana program serves assisted living communities with the same physician-directed model adapted for the assisted living regulatory environment. Our clinical team reduces inappropriate emergency transfers, supports the facility's ability to retain residents who develop wound complications, and provides the physician-directed oversight layer that assisted living nursing staff cannot provide independently.
