Discussion Post: Ideal Criteria.
The "ideal" long-term care system discussed would base eligibility for services on functional needs rather than financial needs. Find the criteria for eligibility for Medicaid coverage for a nursing facility in your state (NYC) (you can get the eligibility standards directly from the state or from a nursing facility).
Do you think they measure functional need vs. financial need? How close do they come to the "ideal" criteria? How would you change them if you could?
The response must include a reference list. One-inch margins, double-space, Using Times New Roman 12 pnt font and APA style of writing and citations.
