Resident is readmitted to unit after hospitaliztion
for dehydration. She had been covered for 5day observation upon
readmission. Now, several days later, her family is considering GT
placement. If she has a 3day hospital stay and a new GT placed is she
eligible for medicare A? Or does she have to have 60days at a
nonskilled level?
