Avera Health
13 nursing homes in 3 states, in CMS's provider file of 2026-09-01.
These are the homes CMS lists under this chain today. Where a home has changed owner since 2016, CMS's change-of-ownership file (edition 2026-06-01) gives the date its current owner took it over, and penalties from before that date are counted apart: they were against an earlier owner, not a penalty against this chain's management. The figure can be off both ways: a change between two companies in the same chain is counted the same way, and a change the file does not hold (it runs to changes effective by 2026-02-01) is not counted at all.
CMS's archive holds 36 fines totalling $508,898 and 3 payment denials against these homes, at 11 of the 13. CMS's current file no longer shows 28 of those penalties.
1 of the 13 homes changed owner since 2016. 1 of those penalties, $3,283 in fines, are dated before the home's current owner took it over, which leaves $505,615 in fines since.
These are counts, not rates. They are not adjusted for how many homes the chain has, how large they are, or which states inspect them.
