Q&A with Bill Pollock

If I need long-term care in the future, how does Medicare fit into that plan, and what should I be doing now to prepare?

Answer: Medicare covers up to 100 days of skilled nursing or rehab services following a qualified hospital stay of at least 3 days. The first 20 are covered 100%. While days 21 thru 100 require a daily co-pay

Medicare covers part-time medically necessary skilled nursing care or physical therapy at home. It does not cover full time ongoing personal care.

If you pay for an assisted living or nursing home out of pocket Medicare will still cover your standard medical services while you are there.

Consideration for long term planning could I include Medicare, long term care insurance or self funding the care. There could also be Long term care options through riders attached to a whole life insurance policy.
