63333 POINTSview profilePeggy MaceMost of the U.S.Yes, Medicare Part A has a deductible of $1,184 in 2013. This applies to stays in a hospital or skilled nursing home, and the deductible is charged per 60 days, NOT per year. Therefore, if there was a qualified hospital stay during, e.g., the spring of the year, and then again during the autumn of that same year, the patient would pay two deductibles.Answered on July 19, 2013flag this answer
