The city’s older residents have easy access to medical care at the Cedar Park Regional Hospital, which also offers a Senior Circle program that includes educational seminars, activities and social events.

A semiprivate room in the city costs an average of $5,201 per month, which is over $2,500 below the national median of $7,756.

Nursing homes provide full-time medical supervision and skilled care to seniors who are frail or chronically ill but don’t require hospitalization. Care is administered 24/7 by registered nurses and certified aides. As a result, nursing home care is often the most expensive option available. Seniors who don’t require this level of care may find home health care or assisted living more suitable and affordable.

This guide discusses the average costs of nursing home care and alternative options in Cedar Park and the surrounding areas. In addition, it lists available senior resources in the city.

Financial Assistance for Nursing Home Care in Cedar Park, TX

Many seniors and their families use some form of financial assistance to help them pay for nursing care. The main options available are Medicare, Medicaid, and veterans benefits. These programs can be complicated, especially when it comes to benefit terms. Below, we give a brief overview of how these programs may be used towards paying for skilled nursing care.

  • Medicare: Medicare will typically cover all skilled nursing costs for the first 20 days of one’s stay in a nursing home and a portion of the costs until day 100. After 100 days in a skilled nursing facility, Medicare will not cover any part of the cost of the stay. While this is adequate when short-term care is needed, those in need of long-term care will need to either pay out-of-pocket or use another source of financial assistance.
  • Medicaid: Medicaid covers most of the costs of living in a skilled nursing facility for those who qualify. Care, room, and board are covered with no time limit, but residents may be charged for extras like specially prepared food or cosmetic services. Medicaid eligibility standards are strict and complex, so not all seniors are eligible for Medicaid benefits.
  • Veterans Benefits: Veterans receiving a VA pension may also be eligible for the Aid and Attendance benefit administered by the VA. Aid and Attendance is a monthly allowance that beneficiaries may use to pay for their long-term care, including skilled nursing care.

If these options aren’t available to you, check if your loved one has long-term care insurance or contact your Area Agency on Aging to ask about any local financial assistance programs for seniors.
