Does Medicare Cover In Home Care For The Elderly? 
That is a great question ! The answer is a little complicated . If your in home need is for help with cleaning , cooking , eating or dressing , the answer is no.Medicare will not cover long term home care , either . If it 's for skilled rehabbing , therapy , or medical equipment needed and prescribed by a doctor to recover from an illness , , then the answer is yes . Under part A and part B there is coverage . There may be some coverage under your part C , but you will want to contact your plan provider to determine which part will cover what , and how much they are going to pay . There are several conditions that must be met to qualify for coverage , so be sure to discuss this with your doctor and your provider . If you need more help , I 'll happily make time for you , just contact me . Thank you for asking !
