Vice President Kamala Harris proposed expanding Medicare to include in-home care services for older Americans, aiming to alleviate financial burdens on families caring for elderly relatives.
The expansion would provide full coverage for lower- and middle-income recipients needing part-time aide support, while higher-income individuals would share the costs of their care.
Despite the estimated $40 billion yearly expense for this initiative, Harris plans to offset costs through tougher Medicare prescription drug negotiations and tax reforms.
This plan is positioned as a way to reduce nursing home admissions, lessen the financial burden on the 'sandwich generation,' and stimulate economic growth.
