Medicare provides limited coverage for skilled nursing home care, covering full benefits for the first 20 days and partial benefits up to 100 days under certain conditions, after which families must explore alternative funding options like Medicaid or long-term care insurance to manage potentially high costs. Proactive planning is essential to navigate the complexities of financing ongoing care once Medicare coverage ends.
