Does Medicare provide long term nursing homes?
Medicare does not pay for long-term nursing home placement. Rules are as follows for nursing home coverage. You must have had at least a 3 night hospital stay (not observation) within the last 30 days prior to admission to nursing home. Days 1-20 are covered at 100%, days 21-100 have a $137.50 copay per day if you do not have a secondary insurance to cover the cost. Although you are allowed 100 days of medicare coverage you must exhibit a "skilled need" such as wound care or therapy services or else medicare will not pay for the stay. You are allowed 100 days at a time. In order to have your 100 days start over you have to exhibit "60 consecutive days of wellness" meaning no hospital needs. Then you must have another 3 night hospital stay to start the cycle over againType your answer here...

How much money will a nursing home take from you if you are on Medicaid?
Whether Medicare will pay for nursing home care is not a matter of how much money the patient needs. In general, Medicare does not pay for long term, "custodial" care, which is the reason for most nursing home admissions. Medicare will pay for nursing home care for rehabilitation; in such a case, the medical record must show that the patient is progressing.

You are on Medicare If you go into a nursing home can the nursing home take your house?
I don't believe that a nursing home has the legal authority to file property liens, altho I suppose they could get a judgment from court and then try to enforce it. Medicare will pay for nursing home care for, at most, a few weeks. After that, the bill becomes your responsibility unless you qualify for Medicaid. In the latter event, the State will file a property lien and/or estate claim to recover the cost of care.
