Yes, Medicare can cover chemotherapy treatment provided in a freestanding facility while a resident is in a skilled nursing facility, but certain conditions must be met. The treatment must be deemed medically necessary and fall under Medicare Part B, which covers outpatient services. It's important to ensure that the skilled nursing facility is certified and that the chemotherapy is not part of the skilled nursing facility's bundled payment. Always check with Medicare or a healthcare provider for specific coverage details.
