FAQs
What is a hyper acute stroke?
A hyper acute stroke is a type of stroke that occurs quickly and requires immediate medical attention. It refers to a sudden blockage of the blood vessels in the brain, which can lead to significant damage in a very short period of time. The most common cause of hyper acute stroke is a blood clot, which can form suddenly and without warning, making it extremely important for those at risk to seek immediate medical care if they experience any signs or symptoms of a stroke.
Who pays for care after a stroke?
After a stroke, the cost of care can be extensive and vary depending on the person’s individual needs. Generally speaking, health insurance is the primary payer for care associated with a stroke. Medicare and Medicaid will cover some costs as well for those who are eligible. In some cases, long-term care insurance may also help to cover costs, depending upon the policy and its stipulations.
