SNF 100 Days Reset To Day 1 On New MA ?

If you appeal something like this what happens if you lose? And how long does it take? It really doesnt help if its takes two weeks.

There's some info here:
https://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Appeals-and-Grievances/MMCAG/

Includes this statement:
Additionally, Medicare health plan enrollees receiving covered services from an inpatient hospital, skilled nursing facility, home health agency, or comprehensive outpatient rehabilitation facility have the right to a fast, or expedited, review if they think their Medicare-covered services are ending too soon.

And this download:

Hope something there is helpful.

If you lose, they tell you no. I don't have a clue. She should have a book that lists her benefits. In there will be info on filing appeals and grievances. I'm not sure if that'll buy you any time. Now you might have to wait until Tuesday to call and ask.
