I recently moved my father from independent living to a nursing care center. He is getting good care, but it is draining his life savings. I always understood that he would have to have all of his finances exhausted before Medicaid would take over. Now I've reading ads that say, that because my dad is a WWII vet and served overseas, that he is eligible for assistance for his care. I also saw that he doesn't have to exhaust all of his savings. This senior advisor thing is new to me. Is most of this rubbish or is there really something to it? I don't want to pay some goobers a big chunk of money to find out later that what I originally thought was true (he has to exhaust all of his personal finances before he can get assistance and Medicaid). Anyone in the know about this?
