Hi guys…

I’ve been navigating the complexities of Medicare recently, and I’m having trouble understanding who qualifies as a caregiver under Medicare rules. My elderly parent needs assistance, and I want to make sure I understand the eligibility criteria for caregivers to ensure we’re doing everything correctly. If anyone has insights or can point me to reliable resources on this topic, I would greatly appreciate it…

I am sorry to hear that you are having trouble determining your eligibility for Medicare. Typically, a caregiver must help with everyday duties including getting dressed, bathing, and preparing meals. For further details, visit Medicare.gov or get in touch with your parents’ plan provider. Please note that policies and regions may have modest variations in coverage and eligibility.
