Nursing home residents on Medicaid are expected to receive another Social Security cost-of-living increase in January, but most of it may never reach them. Under Medicaid rules, nearly all of a resident's income, including Social Security benefits, goes toward the cost of care, leaving a small personal needs allowance — often around $50 a month. The situation highlights how benefit increases for long-term care recipients are largely absorbed by nursing homes rather than improving residents' spending money.
