Lineage care group
Aug 2019 - nowPresidentNiagara Lutheran Health System and Schofield Care, both have rich and diverse histories, and each is a prime example of how mission-driven, non-profit senior care campuses and skilled nursing homes can benefit the entire community. With facilities rated between 4 and 5 stars by CMS, both organizations are committed to providing high-quality, efficient, and cost-conscious care that improves the health of the populations they serve.Increasing financial pressures throughout the industry have led to the closure or sale of 21% of New York State’s non-profit skilled nursing facilities over the past five years. Although each of these organization has managed to stay ahead of this trend, a proactive approach is needed to ensure financial viability into the future.For this reason, Niagara Lutheran Health System and its affiliate, The GreenFields Continuing Care Community, have joined forces with Schofield Care to form a new corporate entity: Lineage Care Group. This new entity will be a "passive super parent” that will serve as the sole corporate member of each partner’s parent corporation. We believe this affiliation will empower our organizations to deliver high-quality care more efficiently by enabling us to share clinical guidelines, maximize Medicaid reimbursement, and reduce combined overhead costs.
