Setting Up Medicare for Newly Diagnosed Alzheimer's Patient

Is there anything in particular I need to know when setting up Medicare for the first time for my parent who was just diagnosed?

Hi Cody.

When you say setting up Medicare for the first time for your parent, do you mean Medicaid? Most people can easily obtain Medicare if they meet the age requirement and have paid into the Medicare system for the required length of time.

Here is a link on the PlanningandProtecting site where you can find information about Medicare and Medicaid. www.planningandprotecting.com/
