You have to get real aggressive with your phone cons with Medicare.
The help is out there but no one is letting you know what is entitled. Dig deep and you will
find out what you are entitled to. Good luck.

Thank you Rapewta!
My Mom is a vet too. Never thought of the VA providing assistance. Will look into it.
I applaud you and your daughter for your actions in helping your father. That worked out very well.
I will post here again with anything I find out that might be helpful.
Take care and best wishes....
