Im wondering if anyone has information about whether Medicare (A & B) or our Medicare Supplement (United Healthcare) will help pay or defer costs during the elimination period. We have a 100 day wait. We have used 66 days since our elimination date was confirmed by our LTCI (John Hancock) We really need help with the balance of the days before we are covered. The claim is already opened, confirmed, my mom qualifies, and our elimination period began 66 days ago. We are being discharged soon and we will have at least 1 month of time that we will need to pay for.
