They have 2 insurance premiums to pay a month. Does that get deducted before the amount owed nursing home is figured? When we figured premiums and what the nursing home was charging it only left 37.95 per month for personal items. It is my understanding that they were suppose to have 60.00 a month for personal needs. Now I understand that has gone up to 75.00.

Started 4-1-15 1065.00 SS, 912.88 nursing home left 152.12 for insurances that were 102.12 that now leaves him with 50.00 for the month personal spending.
It has been reported to me by an Ombudsman that nursing homes have to leave me with $75 per month personal spending.
Your patient should not have to pay any health insurance premiums if they are on Medicaid, so I will ask what insurance? And why only 37.95? What is being deducted from the current $50 allowance? $12.05 for what? newspaper? phone?
