Subject: skilled medicare


Hello Everyone,

        I have a resident that is currently on medicare.  She continues
on therapy 5xwk and will exhaust her medicare benefits.  I wanted to see
if she would be skilled for nursing also.  Her is what is going on with
her:  she was started on an antibiotic for upper respiratory infection.
She is not running a fever.  She does have a moist cough and was also
ordered robitussin.  Would you skill her for nursing also?

Thanks,

Billie Stewart, RNAC
