Medicare and Medicaid pay most of her bill. Is she responsible for paying for the days to hold her bed?

Is she on Long Term Medicaid, Medicaid will cover the cost. (She shouldn’t have the ability to pay any way if she is on Medicaid).

If you go on vacation for a week do you deduct those seven days from your rent?

The rules of the contract signed when she entered the SNF will spell everything out for you. Because all facilities differ, this would be a good question for the administration at your mom's SNF. Given your Mom is on Medicaid I think it will be understood that her monies are already forfeit to her care. I doubt you will receive any bills from anyone, and in any case, given mom really has no money and doesn't need good credit, she needn't pay any bills that come her way if she has no funds to do so.

Yes, it should be in your contract about holding the bed and the fee must be paid.

She is. The bedspace wasn’t used by another paying resident during her hospitalization, it was kept for her, therefore she still pays. Hope she’s doing better
