Re: skill for dehydration/GT

You can put her back on MCR if it is within 30 days of her going off.  When she comes back from the hospital she would just use the days she had left from before.  Ex if she originally came in with 100 days and used 7 she would come back with 93 days left.  Debbie Nichols RN RAC-C ----- Original Message ----- From: Nancy Kavleski To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 25, 2004 12:10 PM Subject: skill for dehydration/GT 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?    Do you Yahoo!?
