MEDICARE'S BENEFITS On Jan. lr the extended care benefits of Medicare began for persons over 65. Although Social Security will only pay this benefit for older patients, the'extended care facility (ECF) is available to all patients requiring skilled nursing care. What is an 'Extended Care Facility' and what will it provide? An ECF is a new type of health care facility for the aged -- something of a cross between a hospital and nursing home -- that will accommodate patients who require less intensive care than that of a hospital, yet more intensive care than that of a nursing home on a relatively short term basis. This new entity will provide these patients with skilled nursing care, and occupational, physical and speech therapy, plus other President Charles Coles of the Township club has been doing the work for the group. special services as needed. To insure these services are of high quality --under the Medicare program --the ECF just meet stringent requirements of the law. Requirements such as: 24-hour skilled nursing care...medical supervision of each patient... an arrangement with a hospital for transfer of patients., and compliance with Ttile VI of the Civil Rights Act which prohibits discrimination (to mention a few). Anyone 65 or over is eligible for medicare benefits in an ECF if they meet these conditions: The patient must be hospitalized for a minimum of three consecutive days. The patient must be admitted to an ECF on a doctor's orders within 14 days from the date of his hospital discharge. The patient must be admitted for further treatment of a condition for whiciji he was hospitalized. When these conditions are met, here's how Medicare helps to pav the bill: Medicare covers all ser-: vices -- including those of * resident and interns-in-training of a teaching hospital 1 which has a transfer agree-* ment with the ECF. It will * NOT, however, cover the payment for physician services, private duty nursing, itor the full cost of aprivate room if considered medically unnecessary. It covers a total of 100 days of extended care benefits for 'each spell of illness." But a new "spell of illness" be- i gins AFTER you have been * out of an ECF at leajst 60 consecutive days. It pays the full cost of services furnished by an ECF for the first 20 days. You must pay $5 for the remaining 80 days.
