Length of stay (LOS) differences were not observed between the dually entitled and other Medicare stroke patients when complexity of disease was considered. LOS for dually entitled heart failure patients was 33.2 percent longer than other Medicare heart failures and were equally likely to be in the extreme DRG subclass. Patients with extreme heart failure stayed 15.5 days longer than those with mild heart failure. LOS differences (+4.5 days) were observed between the dually entitled and other Medicare heart failures when complexity of disease was considered. Within these two DRGs, incremental health care needs for dually entitled equalled 10 percent of the hospital's total Medicare days associated with stroke and heart failure.
