Does Medicare Pay for Nursing Home Care?
Medicare does not cover long-term custodial care in nursing homes, such as help with daily activities like bathing or eating. It only pays for short-term skilled care under specific conditions – after a hospital stay and within a Medicare-certified facility – for up to 100 days.
