What is the difference between adult day care and home care?
Adult day care is a day program outside the home. It gives meals, activities, health checks, and rides to and from the center. Home care sends a caregiver into the home to help one person. Adult day care also gives family caregivers a break during the day.
Who else pays for adult day care besides Medicare?
Medicaid pays for adult day care in many states for people who qualify. The VA covers adult day health care for many veterans. Some long-term care insurance plans pay for it. The rest is paid out of pocket.
