Please could anyone tell me what the correct place of service for long term acute care hospital.

Isn't long term acute care a bit of an oxymoron? Doesn't acute pertain to suddn illness or trauma? Long-term usually means chronic.

Perhaps some examples of pathient conditions being treated would help us understand your context.
