Financing Senior Care: Options You May Not Know About

Delve into the intricate world of senior care funding with me. I begin by unraveling the complexities of Medicare and Medicaid, helping you understand the crucial differences and the benefits of Medicare Advantage plans. Discover how Medicare specialists can provide tailored solutions at no cost, ensuring your loved ones receive the care they deserve while saving on costs.

I then navigate the challenging Medicaid spend-down process, offering strategies to manage assets effectively without falling into common pitfalls. Memory care can be financially daunting, but with the right planning and expert advice, you can secure the best care for your elders. We also explore PACE, a comprehensive alternative for senior care.

I discuss various resources such as state grants, Medicare waivers, and veterans benefits. We also discuss reverse mortgages as a tool for converting home equity into cash for long-term care needs. Long-term care insurance is highlighted as a crucial safeguard against financial burdens.

For our Portland, Oregon listeners, I connect you with trusted local experts to ensure you have the right support. Remember, self-care is vital as you navigate these decisions.
