[quote=Anonymous]Medicare doesn't pay for nursing home care other than for rehab purposes and there are a fair amount of rules regarding this. The hospital social worker or discharge planner should be able to explain. Medicaid will cover nursing home care but he will need also no assets varies by state. Home would usually need to be sold. A Medicaid wavier program might be an option it's a program that helps people pay for in-home care givers so they can remain in their home versus a nursing home, also has income restrictions, can have a long waiting list, and not likely to cover overnight care.[/quote]
