For referring professionals
Discharge planners and case managers carry real legal exposure when they refer. Here is how Mai Heaven is built so that sending us a referral is the low-risk choice — written plainly, not as legal advice.
Paying for a healthcare referral is a federal crime under the Anti-Kickback Statute (AKS) and EKRA. Mai Heaven never pays or accepts a fee for a referral. That means referring to us never puts you, or your organization, on the wrong side of a kickback question.
Our public referral form is de-identified by design — organization, state, and general need only, never a name, date of birth, or diagnosis. Identifying details are exchanged later, through a secure channel and with a signed release. No PHI travels through an open form.
The Supreme Court's Olmstead decision requires people with disabilities to be served in the most integrated setting appropriate. Small, community-based homes are built for exactly that — supporting the community-integration outcomes state agencies are accountable for.
The Fair Housing Act protects small community-based homes for people with disabilities. We build our model around those protections and around residential fit — so a placement is a home on an ordinary street, not a facility.
We claim no bed we don't have, and publish nothing we can't back up. When a home opens, you can verify everything in person.
Our operating standards — medication, incident reporting, resident rights, grievance path, ADA accommodations — are published on the compliance page, so your team can see how a home runs before anyone is referred.
The two questions a compliance officer asks about any new placement partner are usually: "Is there a kickback risk?" and "Could PHI leak?" Our answer to both is built into how we operate — no fees in either direction, and an intake that never asks for protected health information in the open.
On top of that, referring to a provider that is explicit about Olmstead integration and Fair Housing gives your agency a defensible, mission-aligned choice when a case is reviewed.
