Beneficiaries are limited to a total of 60 reserve days over the course of their life.
An additional 60 lifetime reserve days; A benefit period begins when you are admitted to the hospital and ends when you have been out of the hospital for 60 days, or have not received Medicare-covered care in a skilled nursing facility (SNF) or hospital for 60 consecutive days from your day of discharge. If you continue to be hospitalized past 90 days, Medicare provides 60 lifetime reserve days of inpatient hospital coverage. These lifetime reserve days can only be used once â if you use them, Medicare will not renew them.
