Description
Beverly Healthcare-Murrysville (Beverly), an operator of a nursing home facility, appeals from a final order of the Department of Public Welfare, Bureau of Hearings and Appeals (Bureau) that dismissed Beverly's appeal from the decision of the Westmoreland County Assistance Office (CAO) denying the application for medical assistance filed by Beverly on behalf of its patient. The issues on appeal are: (1) whether Beverly had standing to appeal the CAO's denial of nursing home care benefits to its former patient; (2) whether the Bureau improperly raised the standing issue sua sponte; and (3) whether the hearing examiner violated Beverly's right to due process by engaging in ex parte communication with the Bureau's employees in denying Beverly's request to continue a scheduled hearing. We affirm.
