If the patient is 65 or over, Medicare will pay for doctor-ordered inpatient rehab for the first 60 days, with a total deductible for that time of $1,632. Days 61-90 have a per-day copay of $408. The 60 days beyond the first 90 are considered "reserve days", with the patient being responsible for an $816 per-day copay. If inpatient rehab is required even after the 60 day reserve is used up, all costs are the responsibility of the patient.
People under 65, depending on insurance, is a different kettle of fish.
