Thanks for all the answers.....their concern for being paid the RUG instead of charges was actually based on the following statement from the SNF manual, 517.6, bottom of the paragraph.......
"However, under these same circumstances, if the two providers represent an institution composed of a participating hospital and a distinct part participating SNF, the first provider cannot bill for accommodations, but may bill for ancillary charges."
