Searching for a Nursing Home?

March 14, 2013 in health care costs, Medicare, Member Stories

Our parents and grandparents often drain the last of their savings to pay a nursing home bill. So it makes sense to shop around, both for cost and quality. UPI has a story about this site which looks like a good place to start if you want to compare options for a friend or loved one.

The site does not show ANY nursing homes in Massachusetts with a five star rating. There are nine with four stars. In Boston, the average daily charge is $323.70 and the avg. quality rating is 2.9 stars. That’s a lot of money for average quality.
