Who Pays for Long Term Care

The American public believes that our government will provide long term care in New Jersey when needed. This misconception prevents people living in New Jersey from doing proper planning for the future need for care. According to the National Care Planning Council, (www.longtermcarelink.net) many people think they can give away assets prior to the need for long term care and qualify for Medicaid.

Most New Jersey residents may use the system and allow Medicaid to cover care but at what cost? And why would you want to spend your remaining years in a nursing home? As we know, it is the preferred living arrangement for Medicaid. Why go through the expense and effort of trying to manipulate the system to get welfare care, when a little preplanning at an earlier age would be a better option?
