I have something Important to say to MAGA:
Grandma & Grandpa And Mom & Dad are coming home.
Your disabled siblings who are mentally disabled or physically disabled and can't care for themselves, are coming home
Your Uncle Bob or Aunt Sarah disabled by strokes, kidney disease, dementia, Diabetes, Cancer, amputation are coming home
in July 2024 there were 7.2 million seniors, 65+ , on Medicaid
Medicaid covers Nursing home bills for 60% of residents
Medicaid covers 50% of long term care patients
So, You Maga, fucked the libs, but in the process, in your colossal ignorance, you have clearly fucked yourselves because you destroyed Medicaid and all those people noted above, are soon to be your responsibility. WELCOME TO 1965.

(4,746 posts)If you have a person in a nursing facility that is currently private pay for their services the quality of care in the facility will go down in the snap of a finger if other residents are currently on Medicaid lose their coverage. Ive seen it happen first hand. Without the extra care givers, patient supplies and payments for care the care facility will suffer immediate cash flow problems. Save us all if our nursing care facilities go belly up.
