💙 Crisis Moment: Financial Risks with Medicaid

Are you concerned about yours? Why did I get a bill when I am on Medicaid?

This is a question we hear often, and the answer might surprise you. Many people don't realize that some states are collecting co-pays on services based on your income. This means even if you're on Medicaid, you could still receive unexpected bills.

Here's what you need to know:

✓ Medicaid coverage varies by state
✓ Some states charge co-pays for certain services
✓ Your income level may affect what you pay
✓ You have the right to understand your coverage

If you've received a bill you didn't expect while on Medicaid, you're not alone. The key is getting clarity on what you owe and why.

**Need answers?** Reach out to your county's Aging and Disability Resource Center or government office on aging to speak with a Medicaid specialist. They can help you answer your questions and understand your coverage.

Don't navigate this alone. Seek out a professional to help you make sense of it all. 💚

🔍 Wednesday Myth Busters: Long-Term Care Insurance

There's so much confusion around long-term care insurance. Let's bust some myths and get the facts straight!

**MYTH:** "I don't need long-term care insurance—Medicare will cover everything."
**FACT:** Medicare has strict limitations and doesn't cover most long-term care costs. You could face significant out-of-pocket expenses without proper planning.

**MYTH:** "Long-term care insurance is too expensive for me."
**FACT:** Costs vary widely based on age, health, and coverage options. Starting early can mean lower premiums. Plus, the cost of NOT having coverage could be far greater.

**MYTH:** "I'm too young to worry about this."
**FACT:** Long-term care needs can happen at any age due to illness or accident. Planning ahead gives you more options and better rates.
