MedPac (2019) reports that 26% of cases admitted to hospital-based acute rehabilitation units (ARU) and 16% of cases admitted to inpatient rehabilitation facilities (IRF) are stroke cases. MedPac also states that Medicare margins in free-standing IRFs are 24.6% while ARU margins are 2.1%. The reason for this can be multi-faceted but Signet can help determine how to help you best develop a new ARU or enhance your ARU/IRF.
