Sec. 409.62  Lifetime maximum on inpatient psychiatric care.

    There is a lifetime maximum of 190 days on inpatient psychiatric 
hospital services available to any beneficiary. Therefore, once an 
individual receives benefits for 190 days of care in a psychiatric 
hospital, no further benefits of that type are available to that 
individual.
