Alzheimer's disease is one of the major reasons for nursing facility admissions. Many policies are guaranteed renewable, others are conditionally renewable. Inflation adjustment riders are often an added expense. If you can afford it, level premiums are preferable. The VA also provides both skilled and intermediate care to veterans through contracts with community nursing homes.
Beds are available to all veterans on a space-available basis.
Contact your local VA office for more information. You must be careful to find out exactly what costs are included in the quoted monthly or daily charge given by a nursing facility. Read all papers carefully before you sign anything. Ask questions until you understand. A nursing facility administrator wants you to feel confident from the beginning that the best possible care will be provided at a reasonable price.
