very costly(thousands a month)for a decent facility.
(long term nursing home)
medicare will pay for a short stay(about21-30days) as long as some therapy is involved.
medicaid will usually cover longer stays if needed.
assisted living usually is not covered by insurance.
ask the doc which type of facility is needed.
good luck!

It depends on the facility. Some are government funded and supplemented dumps, and some can be VERY expensive.
