Short-term rehab or long-term care?

Medicare rates these separately, and many homes are better at one than the other.

Short-term rehab

For a stay of a few weeks after a hospital visit, such as after surgery or a stroke.

Medicare quality rating: 3 of 5 (average)

  • Needed an emergency room visit11.3%State average: 10.8%
    About average
  • Newly given antipsychotic drugs1.6%State average: 1.2%
    Worse than average

Physical therapist time: about 4 minutes per resident a day. That is about the same as the state average of 4 minutes. If rehab is the goal, ask how many therapy sessions a week to expect.

Long-term care

For residents who live at the home for months or years.

Medicare quality rating: 5 of 5 (much above average)

Who pays, and how full it is

Most residents here have their care paid by Medicaid. In Indiana, Medicaid pays for 65% of resident days at a typical home.

  • 80% Medicaid
  • 4% Medicare
  • 16% Private pay, insurance and other
Beds in use, on average50%Indiana typical: 73%
Cost of care per resident day$407Indiana typical: $353

Shares of resident days, from the home’s Medicare cost report for the year ending December 2024. The cost per day is what care costs the home to provide, not the price you would pay; ask the home for its private-pay rate. A busy home may have fewer open beds, so ask about availability.
