Okay, thanks for the info. I'll be going in there today and see what the current situation is.

Since both knees were done at the same time (apparently not the usual), the hospital suggested that he stay there a few more days, but his insurance co/Medicare said he would have to pay the 6X difference in cost, and he can't.

He was given two choices for rehab/convalescence and my sister and I both nixed the other place (bad rep for years).

And I will have Sis talk to his doctor if things haven't improved by today.

Thanks again for all the tips and information. None of us have much actual hospital experience... kind of makes you wonder if that is good or bad, I guess.
