Frequently Asked Questions:
Aging Issues
My mother is going to need a nursing home.  Will Medicare pay for
that?

    Whether or not Medicare will pay for the stay will depend on the type of care
    your mother is going to need.  If you are having to place your mother in the
    nursing home as a permanent placement, Medicare does not cover long term,
    custodial care costs.  Medicare will only cover short term, rehabilitative stays.  
    Nursing home costs are usually paid through long term care insurance,
    private pay, or through Medicaid.

    If you are looking to place your mother in a nursing home, our staff is
    available to assist you in that process.  Our staff can look at your individual
    circumstances and help you find the proper placement for her.  Also, we can
    help to determine if your mother qualifies for any benefits other than
    Medicare, which could help defray her out of pocket expenses.
