In a general medical sense, GSW causing injury to small bowel requiring resection, portion of liver, etc would not require a month in the hospital. These patients would go to rehab in 7-10 days barring some other issue typically.
I have no idea if MGH has attached rehab, though patients are typically discharged from main hospital into the 'rehab hospital' even if it shares the same physical structure (billing issues). Though colloquially people won't say they went elsewhere since they physically remained in the same structure and so will tell family they are still at X Hospital.
We likely dont have the full info of Ortiz's injuries / complications / or reasons for being still there. In addition, given he is a special case he may be staying for other reasons.
