Sorry, I misread the initial. Since she was receiving skilled services in October, even though paid for by Part B, she would need a 60 day period from the day after her last day of therapy, before you could re-skill after a 3 day hospital stay.

Hello, i just need someones direction for me to understand it right..... and maybe needs supporting documentation too.
..... Resident has Medicare Part A from May 28-July 11...then in October 2003, Therapy pick her up on Medicare B, due to decline.... then in Nov. 17, 2003, she went to Hosp. until 11/25/03.... Does she qualify for another 100 days on Medicare Part A? 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...
