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: 5 of 5 (much above average)

  • Sent back to the hospital18.8%State average: 28.0%
    Better than average
  • Needed an emergency room visit3.6%State average: 14.8%
    Better than average
  • Newly given antipsychotic drugs1.4%State average: 3.1%
    Better than average

Physical therapist time: about 15 minutes a day per resident, averaged across all residents, including long-term residents who get little or no therapy. That is more than the state average of 3 minutes. It is not one person’s therapy schedule; if rehab is the goal, ask how many therapy sessions a week to expect.

Source: Medicare (CMS) quality measures, compared with the Louisiana average. Lower is better for every rate shown.

What a stay may cost

  • Short-term rehab with Medicare: after a qualifying hospital stay, Medicare pays in full for days 1–20. From day 21 to day 100 you pay $217 a day (2026), unless other coverage pays it. Medicare stops after day 100. Estimate a rehab stay →
  • Paying privately: ask the home for its daily rate and what it includes. As a guide, Louisiana’s Medicaid program uses about $7,200 a month as the average cost of nursing home care (September 2024); see the state’s figure.
  • Medicaid: this home isn’t certified for Medicaid, so plan how you would pay if a stay becomes long-term.

Medicare amounts from Medicare.gov. Prices vary with room type and care needs, so always confirm with the home.
