[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our mom has nursing home insurance but I am worried that Medicaid cuts could drive her nursing home out of business, raise her rates etc. [/quote] That's a legit concern. There are very few nursing homes which are completely private given that 2/3rds of their residents are on Medicaid LTC. If this goes through, only the most wealthy will escape unscathed. Even the UMC are in denial on this.[/quote] Is there a cite for the figure of 2/3rds of nursing home residents being on Medicaid LTC? [/quote] I appreciate the PP providing this info but I think it's more nuanced than that. There are "fancy" nursing homes which don't accept Medicaid at all. There are also nursing homes (usually in lesser affluant areas) where every single person is a Medicaid recipient. And then there's everything in between. They will all suffer except for the "fancy" ones. [/quote]
