New York, NY -- (SBWire) -- 04/25/2011 -- Government shut down could mean that new Social Security claims will not be processed, and people currently receiving Social Security checks may not be guaranteed to receive these. The new proposed GOP budget plans will also increase the premiums that people 65 and older must pay for health care. In such turbulent times for both finance and healthcare, how can you be financially prepared for long term care—and sure that your plan is change proof? Naked in the Nursing Home, the newest book by Harold Lustig, is due out in April and can answer the above questions and many others you may have about financial planning for long term care.
Naked in the Nursing Home provides readers with plans to help protect their assets, find the most appropriate insurance for their needs, learn about wartime veteran long term care benefits, protect valuable government benefits for nursing home care, and ensure safety of the elderly. Harold Lustig also provides clear action steps for readers, from how to find a good elderly law attorney to how to choose the proper nursing home. Readers will also have a clearer picture of when to cover health care costs with Medicare and Medicaid, and ways that they can start preparing now for future financial burdens.
