to need "skilled nursing" care to con- tinue on Medicare benefits. Once a person reaches their "maximal poten- tial", Medicare benefits end. This can happen anytime after the first 20 days. • Medicare Part A provides no cover- age beyond 100 days Is Home Health Care covered under Medicare? Yes, Medicare pays 100% for all covered and medically necessary home health services under Part A (or Part B if beneficiary does not have Part A) as long as the beneficiary continues to meet the coverage requirements. Medicare will pay for an unlimited number of visits during an unlimited period, as long as it is med- ically necessary and coverage require- ments are met. It is the intent of home health visits under Part A to deliver skilled medical attention to home- bound patients. Home health care is not available for chronic illness or to help with Activities of Daily Living (ADL's). Requirements include: • Home Health Care Agency must be Medicare certified. • Patient must be under a doctor's care and the doctor must authorize med- ical treatment. • Patient must be in need of skilled care . Hospice care is a service provided to termi- nally ill persons with a life expectancy of six months or less. Medicare defines a hospice as a public agency or a private organization whose primary role is to provide pain relief and symptom management to terminally ill patients. This benefit does not generally cover inpatient room or board charges. Medicare requirements include: • Doctor certification that patient is ter- minally ill and has a life expectancy of less that 6 months • A Medicare-certified hospice pro- gram must provide care Medicare pays 100% of most covered ser- vices. Medicare pays for up to two 90-day periods, one 30-day period, and a fourth unlimited extension period. The beneficiary pays a small co-insurance fee only for outpa- tient drugs and inpatient respite care. For more information on Medicare, please visit www.medicare.gov.

Some seniors, such as those who have not completed the mandatory num- ber of working quarters for Social Security benefits, enroll on a voluntary, premium-paying basis. Medicare Part A begins when someone enters a hospital. Medicare Part A has hospital deductibles. • First 60 days, Medicare pays all but $1,364 • Days 61 to 90, Medicare pays all but $341/day • Days 91 to 150, Medicare pays all but $682/day • Beyond 150 days, Medicare pays nothing Remember, Medicare is a health insur- ance program aimed at covering acute health care costs such as hospitalization (Part A) and periodic doctor visits (Part B). It does not cover most nursing home fees, nor does it offer extensive home health care for the chronic ills often experiences with age. What does Medicare cover for nursing home care? Very little! Medicare Part A helps pay for inpatient skilled nursing care in a Medicare participating skilled nursing facility (SNF) or rehabilitation service facility following a 3 day hospi- tal stay if a person's condition requires skilled nursing services or rehabilitation services such as Physical Therapy (PT), Occupational Therapy (OT), and Speech Pathology (SP). Doesn't everyone get 100 days cover- age in a SNF? No. Medicare will pay up to 100 days. • Days 1-20, Medicare Part A pays 100% • Days 21 - 100, Medicare pays all but the daily co-insurance amount that is the patient's responsibility. The 2019 coinsurance amount is $170.50 per day. After the first 20 days, a person must be making "reasonable, measurable progress" in their rehabilitation, or continue

Some people with disabilities under age 65. People with End Stage Renal Disease (permanent kidney failure requiring dial- ysis or a transplant) Medicare has Two Parts: Part A (Hospital Insurance) Part B (Medical Insurance) Medicare Part B covers physician ser- vices, outpatient hospital care, ambu- lance services, prosthetic devices, med- ical equipment, and supplies. You pay the Medicare Part B premium of $135.50 per month for single individuals with an income of $85,000 and a married couple with less than $170,000 (2019 rate). • Single with income greater than $85,000 and less than $107,000 or married with income greater than $170,000 and less than $214,000 - $189.60 monthly Part B Premium • Single with income greater than $107,000 and less than $133,500 or married with income greater than $214,000 and less than $267,000 - $270.90 monthly Part B Premium • Single with income greater than $133,500 and less than $160,000 or married with income greater than $267,000 and less than $320,000 - $352.20 monthly Part B Premium • Single with income greater than $160,000 and less than $500,000 or married with income over $320,000 and less than $750,000 - $433.40 monthly Part B Premium Part A (Hospital Insurance) Medicare Part A primarily provides cover- age for inpatient hospital care. It also provides hospice care. Limited coverage is provided for skilled nursing home and home health. No coverage is provided for assisted living. Most seniors become eligible for Part A coverage when they reach age 65 and become entitled to Social Security retire- ment benefits. They do not have to pay a monthly payment called a premium for

i vrOv rw if thr M rd ca d P OigOaM limit. Term insurance has no cash value and is excluded from countable assets. 4. Household goods and per- sonal effects : Generally no inquiry unless reason to suspect unusual value. 5. Pre-paid funeral arrange- ments : Each fiscal group mem- ber may have one or more irrev- ocable burial trusts, of which the total face value may not exceed $4,500. Any principal amount over $4,500 is a countable asset. Although Wisconsin law allows $3,000 to be irrevocable, Wisconsin’s Medicaid state plan allows an additional $1,500 to be considered as though it were irrevocable by law for these bur- ial trusts. This is why $4,500 is allowed. Married couples can own exempt assets listed above plus: 1. One automobile per household is excluded regardless of the value if it is used for transportation of the eligible individual or couple or a member of the eligible indi- vidual's or couple's household. 2. IRA of the community spouse How much money may a couple "Shelter"? The Spousal Impoverishment Act passed by the U.S. Congress in 1988 and the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 (OBRA'93) provides the legal means for anyone to shelter assets and qualify for financial assistance through an entitlement program. This act protects married individuals
his article focuses on the Medicaid program as it applies to elder- ly and disabled individuals. There are three common names for one program. 1. Medical assistance 2. Medicaid 3. Title 19 Medicaid is a welfare program jointly funded between the Federal and State government. It is designed to assist in paying for skilled nursing facility expenses and many other medical expenses for individuals who have mini- mal assets and inadequate income to pay for these expenses. The individual is normally responsible to pay for all of his/her own long term care expenses: generally, if the cost of this care exceeds the individual's income and the individ- ual is asset-qualified, Medicaid supple- ments the individual's own payment. Within the Federal guidelines, each state is able to establish their own eligibility standards, determine the type, amount and duration of services, set the rate for payment of services, and administer their own program. This article will out- line the eligibility requirements for Wisconsin as of 2019. A single adult qualifies if they meet the following criteria: The applicant can't retain more than $2,000 plus exempt assets 1. Home : Homestead property is exempt regardless of the value if the applicant intends to return home, or if a disabled child is living in it. 2. Car : One automobile per house- hold is excluded regardless of the value if it is used for transportation of the eligible individual or couple or a member of the eligible individ- ual's or couple's household. 3. Life Insurance : Life insurance is exempt if the face value of all poli- cies is less than $1,500. If the face value exceeds $1,500, full cash value counts towards resource

ost people are familiar with the concept of child day care, but not many know that safe, quality adult day services is an option for caregivers as well. Programs providing half, full and extended hours of care for older adults are referred to as “adult day services” or “AdS”. The typi- cal participant in adult day ser- vices is over the age of 65, may have mid to advanced dementia or other physical limitation, and would benefit from the socializa- tion and care provided in an adult day services setting. Many adult day services centers seek State certification, which requires cer- tain criteria are met to provide an enriching experience for the par- ticipants, and peace of mind for the caregiver. first Steps Why is the caregiver considering adult day services? The primary reason to consider an AdS is for respite care. The care- giver may still be working full- time and is concerned about their loved-one being home alone dur- ing the day. There may be con- cerns about social isolation, prop- er nutrition, and tending to per- sonal care needs. Wandering may also be an issue. If the caregiver is home during the day, they may need a break from the 24 hour caregiver responsibility. AdS pro- grams provide time during the week to do things caregiver’s want and need to do – schedule appointments, grocery shop, socialize with friends, rest. Realizing it is time to seek outside help, and not allowing feelings of inadequacy or guilt to influence this decision, is the first step in determining if AdS is right for

eriatric care Managers (GcM) or Aging Life care Managers (ALcM) are health and human service specialists who provide guidance, support, access to resources, and ongoing follow-up for older adults, adults with disabilities or chron- ic health care needs, and their families and support networks. care Managers come from a variety of professional back- grounds (social work, nursing, gerontology, among others), and have a specialized focus on issues related to aging, chronic disease management and dis- abilities. The care manager is an experi- enced guide and resource for families and professionals. They have extensive knowledge about costs, quality, and avail- ability of services in their com- munity, and can connect you with the right service at the right time. care managers also assist clients in attaining their maximum functional potential and quality of life.

ndependence. Security. Good health. Goals desired by us all. But, as we grow older, attaining and maintaining these goals is more challeng- ing. Innovations and advance- ments in home medical equip- ment have made it easier for older adults to reach these goals and to remain in their own homes. home can be a personal residence or an apart- ment in a continuing care/retirement community or other complex. Whether recovering from an accident, illness or surgery; living with a disability; or, adjusting to the normal effects of growing older, living at home can be a realistic and attainable goal. home medical equipment companies provide the ser- vices, equipment and supplies to assist many individuals who believe home is where they want to be. In consulta- tion with your physician and other health care professionals, the right products and services can be prescribed and provid- ed. Many of these products and services are covered by Medicare, Medicaid or private insurance. here is a partial list
your insurance coverage may include several preferred providers of home medical equipment, supplies and ser- vices. To help you decide which provider to use, ask your physician or relatives and friends who may have been served by a home med- ical equipment company. or, contact the companies yourself and ask questions that include: • Will the provider bill my insurance, Medicare and/or Medicaid when appropri- ate? • does the provider train, supervise and monitor its clinical services and delivery personnel? • Will the company deliver the products and provide instructions on their use? • does the company provide 24-hour service? • Is the provider accredited? using products and ser- vices provided by home med- ical equipment companies can add to your good health and feeling of independence and security.

cBRF's are identified by licensure level or class. These licensure levels are listed at the right of this page. The licensure level determines the type of residents that may reside in the facility. critical to those explor- ing cBRF options is the ability of the program to handle resi- dents with a diagnosis of dementia- /Alzheimer's dis- ease, specific ambulation diffi- culties and the need for stand- by assistance. certain facilities are designated as dementia- /Alzheimer's specialty facili- ties. Some may also provide respite care when short term stays are needed. Facilities providing these services are identified within the detail list- ings in the cBRF section. cBRF's also differ in terms of pricing structures. It is criti- cal to fully understand whether the program being explored has an all-inclusive fee, (room, board and all personal care included in the cost) an ala-cart program, (a fee for rent and all services are added to the monthly billing) or a modified fee program, (rent and some services included in the month- ly fee and some personal care c oMMunITy B ASEd R ESIdEnTIAL F AcILITIES

ommunity Based Residential Facilities (cBRF's) are state licensed supportive living facilities where five or more unre- lated adults reside. care, treat- ment or services provided in cBRF's are above the level of room and board but do not include more than three hours of skilled nursing care per week. cBRF's provide assistance with activities of daily living to help residents maintain as inde- pendent a lifestyle as possible. Typical services offered include meals, housekeeping, laundry, linen exchange, medication moni- toring and assistance with dress- ing and bathing. cBRF's also offer residents the opportunity to socialize. Each facility will offer some level of organized activity based on resident interests. For the socially isolated senior, the move to a cBRF can be a wonder- ful experience. cBRF's provide an innovative approach to residential living for older adults. Supportive living programs come in all shapes and sizes. The environment may be a house that has been renovated to provide personal care for a small number of people or a newly con- structed building with private apartments for a large number of residents. Some facilities furnish all but the residents clothing whereas others have the resident fully furnish the apartment and even offer the opportunity for customized decorating.
services added on). There may also be upfront costs in the form of an entrance fee, endowment fee, application fee or security deposit. Financial assistance for cBRF living may be available through the Family care Program. These funds are administered by each county’s Aging Resource center. In order to become eligible for funding, you must apply with the Aging Resource center in the county in which the facility you desire to live in is located, not necessarily the county in which you live. Although a facility may accept funds, they do not have any control over availability or access of same. licensure level or Class: Class AA: A class AAmbulatory cBRF may serve only residents who are ambulatory and are mentally and physically capable of responding to an electronic fire alarm and exiting the facility without any help or verbal or Semiambulatory cBRF may serve only residents who are ambulato- ry or semiambulatory and are mentally and physically capable of responding to an electronic fire alarm and exiting the facility without any help or verbal or physical prompting. physical prompting.

ftentimes, decisions about elder care and senior living are made as a result of an injury or ill- ness and a decision regarding home care, home healthcare, or assisted living services must be made quickly. however, being knowledgeable about your options and planning ahead will allow you to make the best deci- sion for all involved. home health Agencies can really be defined by the level of services being offered. Non-Medical Home Health Agencies differ from companion type services because they pro- vide an additional level of assis- tance in the home. In addition to the homemaker/companion ser- vices such as meal preparation, light housekeeping, errand ser- vices and recreational activities, a non-Medical home health Agency may also offer hands-on personal care services. Personal care services typically include assistance with Activities of daily Living (AdL’s) such as bathing, dressing, grooming, eating, mobil- ity, and toileting. Anon-medical agency which offers this advanced level of personal care may be reimbursed by long-term care insurance policies but typi- cally is not covered by Medicare/Medicaid. An agency such as this is still considered non-medical because it is not pro- viding the skilled cares that a licensed home health agency pro- vides. A Licensed Home Health Agency provides skilled care in the home that may include ser- vices such as Iv therapy, wound
•Always ask the agency about minimums – hours per visit and visits per week. •Ask about the agency’s back up system in the event your scheduled caregiver has an emergency. you’ll want to make sure that agency has back-up or on-call staff in this situation. Getting additional assistance in the home early on can drastically reduce your risk of a more serious illness or medical condition later on. It may be difficult at first to ask for the additional assistance but you’ve worked hard in life and it may be time you had someone assist or someone “catering” to your daily needs.
care, physical therapy, occupa- tional therapy, speech therapy or respiratory therapy. Most home health agencies also have home healthAides to provide personal care services such as bathing, grooming and dressing assistance. Many times the ser- vices provided by a licensed home health agency may be reimbursable through private insurance coverage or Medicare/Medicaid Programs. When looking for a home health agency to provide you or your loved one with assistance in the home, you should con- sider the following; • If you are in need of per- sonal care services, make sure the agency provides actual hands-on care and not just “assistance” with bathing or transferring. Many times the non-med- ical agencies can provide the “assistance” services at a less expensive level of care therefore you should- n’t need to pay for person- al care services unless it’s actually hands-on assis- tance. • If you have a long term care insurance policy, have the agency check with the insurance company direct- ly to ensure the cares are covered under your policy. The agency should be happy to do this for you.
