This at-a-glance guide helps you:

• At-a-glance care options & real-world costs (plus what Medicaid can pay) for independent living, assisted living, nursing home, and home care — so you can quickly match the stage to the right level of care without overspending, leading to faster placement and fewer financial surprises.

• Medicare vs. Medicaid reality check with the 5-year “look-back” explained — so you can prep what matters now, resulting in fewer denials and more protected savings when care gets expensive.

• Straight-forward plan for each stage of dementia (& a “while-you-wait” plan) — showing who to call, what to avoid (don’t sign facility contracts before your attorney reviews), and how to bridge care until approval, so you can act immediately and keep life stable while you secure a Medicaid bed.
