I thought she doesn't due to the fact that she received Therapy in October 2003 and that consi- dered skilled (no matter what the pay source is) and no 60 days gap (wellness period). Am I wrong with my interpretations with the guidelines? Pls. help me to clarify this. thank you... Happy Holidays...  Do you Yahoo!? Free Pop-Up Blocker - Get it now
