Joe it's a great question. The answer is a yes/no. As it stands right now, the more days you spend, the dollars are racking up....HOWEVER..that doesn't necessarily translate in to $$$ for the hospital. As someone in the medical field, what we are seeing today, is that insurance companies are imposing increasing limitations, on what they will pay for, or not pay for. One of those topics is HAI...insurance companies are getting smart or greedy or however you want to look at it...and saying to the hospitals...your patients are coming in for XYZ procedure....here is the expected stay, here is what we would cover...if they have issues that arise outside of what we say is covered, which HAI are starting to fall in that realm of what is not covered, then insurance companies will not pay it.
