My 86 year old father is currently in a private pay Assisted Living facility.
He will be out of savings within the next 10-12 months and then will only have his SS.
When the time comes near we will need to apply for Medicaid for him and then he will need to leave where he is currently living.
We have heard it is a difficult process to find a LTC Medicaid bed to transfer into.
Does anyone have insight into how you get into a LTC facility?
We have heard most transfers happen from a hospital but what if your family member isn’t hospitalized?
Thank you in advance.
