My Mother Fell at Home? Will She Need to Pay Out of Pocket or Will Insurance Cover It?
Show Notes

The discussion starts with the fall and then looks at whether she required hospitalization or Rehab? Getting discharged and going home must be examined and in most cases, the senior will show a qualifying need and have an order from her physician.  Then we need to know how long will it be covered? If additional help is needed, then this is when private pay comes into place, referred to as non-medical care.
