No one ever plans to be hospitalized, but for many enrolled in Medicare Part A it is a relief for them to know that this part of Original Medicare will cover some of the expenses they will incur during their hospitalization. Medicare Part A is often referred to as Hospital Insurance and this part of Medicare helps pay for the care you receive if you are admitted as an inpatient in a hospital or skilled nursing facility.

Elder Care Resources in Your City or Town
The Eldercare.gov website and eldercare locater tool is provided as a free resource by the US Department of Health and Human Services. It is intended as a free service to help connect elderly people and their families with local community services. This means that the Department of Aging, a part of the DHHS, works with regional, state, and local agencies. In some cases, services may not be public ones but many are.
Some examples of the types of services that you can find include adult day cares, legal assistance, nursing homes, housing options, and home repair assistance. If you have no idea where to find help with elder care in your local area, or you don’t even know what kind of help might be out there, this is not a bad place to start.

Before discussing how veterans benefits might help pay for long term care, it might be helpful to define what long term care usually means. This is a very broad term that typically covers everything from help with normal activities (Activities of Daily Living, or ADLs) to help managing illnesses and infirmities. This care could be provided by home caregivers, adult day care workers, or in a residential setting like an assisted living home or skilled nursing facility.

Some seniors and disabled people need extra help with their care. In some cases, they might just need a little bit of help with daily care activities, usually called activities of daily living (ADLs). In other cases, they may need medical monitoring, supervision, or therapy.
