hoping to share what I had learned the hard way. Your post reminded me. We were certainly grateful for the additional Medicare coverage and I know it could be important to lots of people.

Of course I hope WCGreen gets better soon, but if he has to stay in rehab longer than three weeks, he shouldn't have to fight for his facility to follow the law. And no one's family needs the additional stress of trying to figure out how to pay for skilled nursing, on top of everything else.
