Questions families ask

Who pays for a nursing home stay right after a hospitalization in Minnesota?

Medicare Part A can cover a limited number of days of medically necessary skilled nursing facility care following a qualifying inpatient hospital stay of at least three days, subject to coinsurance after day 20. After Medicare coverage ends, the resident is privately responsible unless they qualify for Medical Assistance, at which point Minnesota's long-term-care Medicaid eligibility and spend-down rules apply.

What is a MnCHOICES assessment and why does it matter for hospital discharge planning?

MnCHOICES is Minnesota's standardized long-term-care needs assessment used to determine whether someone needs a nursing-facility level of care and is functionally eligible for programs like the Elderly Waiver or Alternative Care. Starting this assessment as early as possible during a hospital stay — rather than waiting until after discharge — can shorten the gap before waiver services begin.

My parent has been diagnosed with dementia — where do I start in the Twin Cities?

Start by calling the Senior LinkAge Line (1-800-333-2433), operated by Trellis, for care navigation and options counseling. If a memory care community is eventually needed, confirm it holds MDH's 'assisted living facility with dementia care' license (Minn. Stat. 144G.10, subd. 2(b)) — verify this directly through the MDH Health Care Provider Directory rather than relying on marketing materials.
