No Nursing Home For Me

Posted on Friday, March 10 at 12:13 by Diogenes
So, there will be no nursing home in my future. When I get old and feeble, I am going to get on a Princess Cruise Ship. The average cost for a nursing home is $200 per day. I have checked on reservations on a Princess and I can get a long-term discount and senior discount price of $135 per day. http://www.rense.com/general69/nonurs.htm [Proofreader's note: this article was edited for spelling and typos on March 13, 2006]

    since it is not mentioned, I'd guess the "default country" for this was the states? especially since it is in the states that Medicare is a service for the elderly only.

    FWIW, I read this on wiki:

    According to an article in the Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons, in a random sampling of questions asked to Medicare customer service representatives, 96% of the answers given were incorrect.

    the goes to a 2004 publication. I wouldn't totally bet on the accuracy of the publication just because it sounds so impossible, but anyways.
