PENNSYLVANIA

The Second Largest SNF Market in the Northeast. The Most Aggressive DOH Survey Environment in the Country.

Pennsylvania DOH conducts more survey visits per facility than almost any other state. Every undocumented screening is a deficiency citation waiting to happen. Traditional assessments like the MMSE, MoCA, and PHQ-9 require 20–30 minutes of trained staff time per resident — time Pennsylvania facilities do not have. GIA® by Scienza Health screens for 46 conditions with zero staff time and generates the documentation automatically.

THE PENNSYLVANIA MARKET

Philadelphia. Pittsburgh. And the staffing desert in between.

Pennsylvania operates over 700 skilled nursing facilities — the second largest market in the Northeast. Philadelphia and Pittsburgh metros concentrate the majority of facilities but compete for clinical staff in expensive urban labor markets. Central Pennsylvania faces severe staffing deserts where facilities cannot recruit at any price. Both environments are expected to meet the same DOH documentation standards.

GIA® by Scienza Health works the same way in both settings — by video in a Philadelphia facility or by landline in a rural central Pennsylvania home. 46 conditions. Under 5 minutes. Zero staff time. Structured medical notes, CPT codes, and session video prepared for clinician review. See all 46 conditions.
