Summary

Get the best care in the right place, for the right price -- this book shows you how!

Finding the right long-term care often means making difficult decisions during difficult times. Long-Term Care helps you understand the alternatives to nursing facilities and shows you how to find the best care you can afford.

With Long-Term Care, you'll be able to:

  • evaluate long-term care insurance
  • arrange home care
  • explore options beyond nursing homes
  • choose a nursing facility
  • get the most out of Medicare, Medicaid and other benefit programs
  • protect your assets, and
  • recognize and prevent elder fraud.

The completely updated 7th edition has an all-new chapter on long-term care insurance and updated coverage of Medicaid. It also includes up-to-date benefit numbers, laws and taxes, and revised information on veterans' benefits.

With sensitivity and clarity, Attorney Joseph Matthews gives you everything you need to help plan for and make the best arrangements for long-term care.
