Original Medicare is designed for acute medical care and explicitly does not cover long-term care stays in a nursing home or assisted living facility.
Medicaid, unlike Medicare, can cover long-term custodial care, but applicants must meet strict income and asset limits, requiring strategic financial planning.
Medicare covers advance care planning as an optional element of the Annual Wellness Visit, allowing seniors to formally discuss end-of-life care decisions with their healthcare provider.
