I have a lady who had never used her 100 days for feeding tube as when it
was placed she was still on po diet and feedings were supplemental and did not
meet skilled requirements. Now she has been hospitalized for 3 day and in
a Medicare bed with IV fluids/meds. Can she use her 100 days now for her
feeding tube? Since she is also public aid can we make her family waive
Medicare rights? And if they choose not to waive Medicare, can we require
her to pay a bed hold or fill her bed with someone else? Any and all
response will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
