I was told yesterday that there was an update to Medicare a couple of years ago that stated that g-tube feeders who have used their 100 days for their g-tube, can be reskilled for something else such as an infection or wound later on after 60 days and had a 3 day qualifying stay, but can never be skilled for their g-tube again.    Is this correct?  Does anyone have any references to this?
