Workshop: Understanding the Cost and Value of Paying for Long Term Care: The Importance of Being Prepared
The options for paying for long-term care are limited. Did you know that Medicare will not pay for home care or assisted living facility care? Do you know what Medicaid provides?

This workshop is intended to provide information prior to a crisis. Miles Hurley, Elder Law Attorney, will lead a discussion centered on the importance of legal documents and will help individuals learn how to best locate and pay for good long-term care. October 27, 2016, 12:00 pm -1:30 pm, Emory University Hospital, Main Lobby Auditorium. To register, click here. |
