Medicare Paid days in  a Rehab Facility

Did you know that every senior is entitled to up to 100 qualified ‘Medicare Paid’ days in a rehab facility if they need it?

If a senior should fall and fracture a hip they usually go to the hospital and have it repaired, but they only stay in the hospital for approximately 3 days. This is a qualifying stay in an acute hospital which allows the senior to progress to the skilled nursing facility (SNF), and begin their rehab. They can only ever go to a SNF if they have their 3 say qualifying stay in an Acute Care Hospital first.
