“Medicaid
should not be for the middle class | Opinion,” by Sally Pipes,
PENNLIVE.com
Quote:
“Seniors shouldn’t receive Medicaid unless they legitimately cannot afford
long-term care. Instead of incentivizing people to hide their wealth, the
law should motivate them to spend their own money. A new report from the
Paragon Health Institute details how this might look. First, we need to
roll back many of the exemptions that allow seniors to hide wealth to
qualify for Medicaid.”
