		<description><![CDATA[One Medicare 72 hour rule is the rule that dictates that you must spend at least three days, or 72 hours, as an inpatient in the hospital before you can be discharged to a Medicare bed in a skilled nursing facility. This means three consecutive nights after being formally admitted as an inpatient. Inpatient status may not necessarily begin the first night spent in the hospital.

Another Medicare 72 hour rule relates to billing. It states that services receives 72 hours before a hospitalization must be bundled into one bill.]]></description>
