About 6 months ago my mom died and my dad had to go live in a nursing home. He had a stroke a couple of years ago and from what I'm told he will not be able to live on his own. My dad is retired military and had all his medical care taken care of or thats what I assumed. I get a call today from the home and they said that Tricare and Medicare were running out and I would have to have $30,000 a year so he can live there. I was dumb enough to believe that retired military get medical care for life. My moms life insurance was $30,000 so thats enough to cover 1 year of the home I guess. I would have to sell the house and everything else to make sure he could get taken care of. But what happends when all that money runs out? They said he would pretty much have to be dirt poor to qualify for medicaid. So I guess that once all our savings is eaten away he can go on medicaid but theres got to be a better way. I mean I could probably swing it if my parents didnt have massive credit card debt that I was using their insurance money to pay off.

Is it even possible to get some kind of Nursing Home Insurance at this point?
