My wife and myself are both on Social Security and she has some very bad health problems. She at present is in a nursing home under rehab. We are told if she leaves and comes home Medicaid will stop or we need to spend $1600 spend down to keep it. We need to find out our options, and where we can get help. $1600 is not a option! Please send all the information you feel we could use.
I have VA helping me she has Medicaid, as long as she is in the Nursing Home. She is on around 20 Plus Prescriptions.

There are different human service agencies to try for public aid, and this would include Medicaid as well. While we doubt they can pay the amount you need, try to apply and see what they say as there are options in Virginia, as you can read about. http://www.needhelppayingbills.com/html ... ginia.html
