Long term care is really a quagmire that never ends. I have assisted my father-in-law and sister with financial preparation for nursing home living and what a mess. Each state has different rules to quality for medicaid that require years(3+) of preparation. If you qualify then all is paid by medicaid--if not you're look at $4-6K/mo. I learned an interesting fact--in your average nursing home over 90% of patients are medicaid--no one else can afford it. Basically, the patient has to be penniless for three years to qualify for medicaid nursing home care.

By the way, Medicare does not cover any of the nursing home costs, unless you are in for a short re-hab and that's hard to get approved.
