Federal rule seeks family help with nursing home costs
The policy would let states require adult children to contribute to indigent parents’ nursing home expenses as a shift in Medicaid cost handling. It aims to strengthen family responsibility, potentially reducing reliance on warehousing elders, though prior state laws already tested child contributions under older rules.
Honor Thy Father Policy Extends Elder Care Duties
The extension of regulations holds states responsible for supporting spouses and children under 21. The shift reflects a move away from elderly parents living with children, influenced by social security, affluence, and mobility, aiming to renew family bonds and curb costly nursing homes.
