i had heard Medicare pays only if you are "homebound" and that they consider bowel care maintenence, so not covered. Why did medicaid cancel? Move to Caifornia...they give IHSS, plenty of hours. Hard to find decent aides though.

My home health says medicare will only cover 45 minutes twice a week. Anyone know what medicare covers? What a flippin’ nightmare! Nicki
