Medicare Rehabilitation Hospital Beds in the Great Lakes Region

Rehabilitation hospitals are a key part of the hospital infrastructure serving the needs of the more than 62 million Americans with Medicare Part A insurance coverage.  As of the calendar year 2020, rehabilitation hospitals accounted for about 5% of the 6,200 plus hospitals, and just over 2% of the 927,300 plus hospital beds, that participated in the Medicare program.

In the calendar year 2020, the five-state Great Lakes region of the U.S. was home to 31 rehabilitation hospitals, with just over 2,100 beds, that were participating in the Medicare program.  As such, the region was home to about 14.7% of the nation's Medicare Part A enrollees, but less than 11% of the program's rehabilitation hospital beds.  Here is a state-level summary look at Medicare rehabilitation hospital beds in the Great Lakes region of the U.S.:
