Now we can have an honest conversation about the costs and benefits of adding more uninsured Floridians to the state’s Medicaid rolls under a provision of the federal health reform law known as Obamacare. For after hyper-inflating the true cost, and getting pushback from legislative budget analysts, Gov. Rick Scott’s administration finally released a more realistic cost estimate for helping poor people get health care. And it’s a shocker. The new pricetag is about a fifth of what the governor has been leading us to believe.
Congress rang in the New Year by enacting legislation to save us all from the “fiscal cliff” the country was precariously dangling from – the “American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012”. The most important impact the legislation has on estate and gift taxes is that it makes the system that was in place over the past couple of years permanent. As far as estate and gift tax changes go, there weren’t many made in the new legislation.

The final budget deal Congress passed to avert the “fiscal cliff” repeals a long-term care insurance program that would have helped keep the elderly and disabled out of nursing homes and off the Medicaid rolls. In its place, the budget bill establishes a commission to come up with an alternative plan to make long-term care available for those who need it.

Assisted living facilities offer basically the same services as board and care homes, but in a more “upscale” and homelike environment. Housing is often in small apartments and there is generally more space, privacy and recreational options. A premium is placed on retaining as much independence in living as possible, and care is more individualized.
