Decided to delete but can't.

I felt hopeful to get help medicare will pay for but found out palliative care will still only pay for a bath and remove my only supports from my life. Sounds like you have to have a palliative care dr and at home they give you emotional support. Medicare won't pay for two.

Anyway. I was hopeful you had an answer. If I had Medicaid, I could hsve the world for help. I have medicare/medigap (for which I am grateful) but if I'm not willing to get naked for a bath within minutes of anyone they send, even a 20 yo guy, I can't have anything. I winder if someone said it that way to congress they would understand better what elder care means. But respect older people right.

Aging in place doesn't exist unless you have money to pay for everything. Otherwise, it means ask your kids to help.

Very discouraging. I'm 69. Disabled my whole life but recently fell and need help. Nothing available insurance will cover.
