Read an article in the Wall Street Journal talking about Hospice Care, and how it has now expanded to include those with Dementia or Alzheimer's. It's not just for Cancer anymore!
While I won't bore you with the details of the article, it occurred to me that Hospice is now the New Long Term Care. It mentions a Centenarian who has been in and out of Hospice for thirty years now. Between her (now) 70 year old daughter, and their physician, they have been able to keep the revolving door of Hospice moving for her.
While part of me is made about this abuse of the system, another part of me says, "Hey, if you can get the system to work for you, why not?!"
Look at all the money they've saved in LTC Premiums. I gotta find a way to start selling Hospice plans.
