About this item
Product details
1) Paying for Health Care Services (among the five chapters included here two are Understanding Medicare and Insurance Options)
2) Finding Long-Term Care (among the seven chapters two are Assisted Living and Nursing Homes)
3) Paying for Long-Term Care (the two chapters are How Medicaid Pays for Long-Term Care and Insurance for Long-Term Care).
4) Finally, the book has twenty appendices, with charts and tables, bearing such headings as State Insurance Counseling Programs, Citizen Advocacy Groups, Long-Term Care Ombudsmen, Pharmaceutical Company Give-Away Programs, Ratings of Comprehensive Long-Term Insurance and Nursing Homes.
Although this is a book on a subject that people come to somewhat reluctantly, the voice of the book is actually very warm throughout with many engaging and instructive real-life anecdotes, drawn from the dozens of interviews that Trudy Lieberman and the editors of Consumer Reports have done with seniors and their family members. Many of the stories are about families that have successfully and constructively met the challenges of long-term health care, giving their parents a good quality of life in their elder years. This is a hands-book with a can-do, optimistic attitude that people searching for solutions to long-term health care problems will relish and appreciate.
