Nursing Home Care
 

You pay 100%.

Most nursing home care is custodial care. Generally, Medicare does not cover custodial care. Medicare Part A only covers skilled care given in a certified skilled nursing facility (SNF). You must meet certain conditions and coverage is limited. Please refer to the coverage information for Skilled Nursing Facility Care.

Medicare is the name given to a health insurance program administered by the United States government, covering people who are either age 65 and over, or who meet other special criteria.
