I'm in the hospital again, 9th time since 2015, geeezzzz.

are you doing better now?? holy shit man.
In short about 13 days in the hospital for a small operation then 40 days in a specialty hospital for intensive IV treatment when that was over on May 22 into a rehab facility to get over from the first two about 44 days now and almost finished about 96 days total........ doing well.
Make sure if you know anyone who has Medicare that they have a good Medigap policy with the F coverage this can get REALLY EXPENSIVE!!
Medicare alone only pays for 20 days of rehab IF you qualify after a 3+ day hospital stay days 21-100 are on you for $167.50/day or about $12,160 out of your pocket. Days 101 on are all your responsibility!
After 60 plus days out of everything you can requalify again for the 100 days.....got it? I've seen people get kicked out of here because they could not pay!!
Oh BTW my Medigap F plan covers all Medicare HOSPITAL A and B coverage plus an additional 365 days. It also pays for the day 21-100 out of pocket costs.

So I'm almost home now 5 doctor appointments scheduled before I leave and two after that, how dreary.
. But had a new cute blonde nurse yesterday named Heidi so I'm getting by....... wonder if she's back tonight? 
Oh the wife and I generally get a nice carry out meal after doctor appointments....... maybe Mexican or Chinese tonight?
CARRY ON! GO TRIBE!

Unfortunately some of those places will keep you to the max even if you don't need it to collect the dollars.

I often wondered about that, I can see the incentive to do that ~but~ they do have to meet the weekly Medicare progress criteria to continue to get paid from Medicare......I'm there now on my PT and OT and have to stay qualified on my wound progress to stay here. I'm going through all of the doctor's follow-ups now on that.
I do have an important appointment on July 18 on that my last appointment.

Of my own free will (?) I pray God will bless you with a permanent stay at home this time around. What an ordeal!

yep - I hope you never have another problem. Stay well.

Just got home about 1:30 pm some of my doctors are checking me off as OK and on PRN status and do not need any follow up visits.
Next week I pick up my new Rx reading and Ray-Ban sunglasses.
Seems so strange but so nice being home!
