[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Doesn’t California and maybe Connecticut already have a long term care program like this? https://www.medicaidlongtermcare.org/eligibility/california/ I dint know much about it but it at least provides sort of a pilot program for this. [/quote] All states have something for those with no money. But if you have assets you are supposed to spend those down first, not leave anything to your spouse, and heirs. But if you need a kidney transplant at a cost of maybe $500,000? Medicare covers that. You aren’t expected to spend all your assets first. If you need any medical treatment or therapy, that is not asset tested. But if you require help feeding yourself or bathing yourself, toileting and changing diapers, emptying catheters, getting dressed due to an illness or disease, Medicare only covers it for a few weeks.
