Nursing Homes in Nebraska

Nebraska is home to about 2 million people, and it has a large senior population that accounts for over 16% of the population. It supports its aging population through over 200 nursing homes and skilled nursing facilities, as well as nearly 100 hospitals, including four that provide long-term care. Among its top-ranking hospitals are Nebraska Medical Center and Bryan Medical Center, both of which specialize in senior care. 

Nursing homes in Nebraska provide private and semiprivate rooms, three daily meals, social services, nursing services and most of the medical supplies and equipment residents need. On average, seniors in the state pay $7,194 per month for semiprivate accommodations. Private rooms are a little costlier at $7,931 monthly.  

This guide provides an overview of the cost of nursing home care in Nebraska and how it compares to fees in nearby states and other types of senior care. It outlines the state’s programs and agencies that can help seniors find alternatives to nursing home placement or options for covering costs. The guide also summarizes the rules and regulations that nursing homes in the state must comply with to maintain licensing. 

The Cost of Nursing Home Care in Nebraska

According to the Genworth 2020 Cost of Care Survey, semiprivate rooms in nursing homes in Nebraska cost $7,194 per month, which is about 7% cheaper than the national average of $7,756. While this state is a relatively affordable option for this level of care, several of its bordering states have lower monthly fees. In Iowa, which borders on the east, seniors pay the lowest fees in the region of $6,570 per month. In Kansas, to the south of Nebraska, fees come in at $6,692, and in South Dakota, nursing home care costs $7,011 per month. Wyoming is the only neighboring state with higher care costs, with fees exceeding the national average at $8,258 per month.

Nursing home fees vary depending on factors such as local living costs, amenities and service fee schedules. The most affordable city for nursing home care is Grand Island, where seniors pay approximately $6,608 monthly. In the capital city of Lincoln, fees are closer to the state median at $7,254, and in Omaha, the state’s most populous city, fees are the highest at $8,182 per month. Across state lines, local nursing home fees range widely. Manhattan, Kansas, which is about 70 miles south of Nebraska’s border, is one of the cheapest nearby cities at $5,735 monthly.

Does Medicaid Cover Nursing Home Care in Nebraska?

Yes, Medicaid in Nebraska offers seniors a full range of services in nursing homes and other skilled living communities, as the program usually covers 100% of the costs of staying in a residential care facility, including room and board, dietary services, nursing care, oxygen, and most medical equipment and supplies. It will often pay for additional services such as physical and occupational therapy as long as the service focuses on restoration of lost function. 

Data from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services reveals that in July 2021, more than 298,000 Nebraska seniors were enrolled in Medicaid. Fortunately, the state has more than 200 nursing homes with a total of 15,409 licensed beds. The seniors who live in skilled nursing facilities often require access to advanced nursing care and dependable, affordable room and board. At an average cost of $7,483 per month for a semiprivate room, skilled nursing care is often beyond the reach of financial assistance through Medicare. Medicaid services can often mean the difference between living comfortably with a decent quality of care or struggling to find the financial means to stay healthy.

Medicaid Waiver programs are variants of Medicaid that allow the government to waive its Medicaid rules to allow those who most need services to benefit from them in a community setting rather than in an institution. Nebraska has a number of Medicaid Waivers for seniors, including the Aged & Disabled Waiver, the Respite Waiver, the PERS Waiver and the Assisted Living Waiver. Many of these programs have a current waiting list, although in some cases a senior could be given emergency access.

Medicaid Eligibility in Nebraska

To be eligible for nursing home care, seniors must require a nursing facility level of care, which means they must have many of the same care requirements as those who are already living in a skilled nursing facility. This usually means they need assistance with much of their personal care tasks such as bathing, grooming, eating or mobility. In addition, applicants will need to have a Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR) to ensure they’re medically stable yet require 24-hour care and supervision due to long-lasting health issues.

Monthly income requirements for seniors applying for Medicaid are straightforward. Seniors are typically designated as categorically needy and must have an income of 100% of the Federal Poverty Level or less. Individuals can make up to $14,580 per year in Social Security, pension, disability and veterans’ benefits, and they can have assets amounting to $4,000. A married couple who apply together for Medicaid coverage can earn up to $19,728 per year with up to $6,000 in assets. The applicant’s private home, vehicle, business-owned property and irrevocable burial funds are not counted as assets.

If only one spouse is applying for coverage, the applicant’s assets must not amount to more than $4,000. The Spousal Impoverishment provisions demand that an applicant’s spouse not be subjected to that limitation. Therefore, they may have assets of up to $148,620.  Medicaid covers nursing-level care provided in a nursing home, residential facility or private home.

Household SizeNumber of ApplicantsIncome Limits Per Year*Asset Limits: Applicant(s)Asset Limits: Non-Applicants
One Person1$14,580$4,000
Two People1$14,580**$4,000$148,620
Two People 2$19,716$6,000***

*Except for a $60/mo. personal needs allowance, Medicare premiums and possibly a spousal income allowance for a non-applicant spouse, all of a recipient's monthly income must be put toward the cost of nursing home care.

**Income limit is for applicant only.

***Assets are limited to $4,000 per spouse

In addition to these financial requirements, seniors seeking Medicaid in Nebraska must meet several additional qualifications. These include:

  • 65 or older
  • Resident of Nebraska at the time of application
  • U.S. national, citizen, permanent resident or legal alien

Does Medicare Cover Nursing Home Care in Nebraska?

Medicare provides limited coverage for short-term stays in a skilled nursing facility following a hospital stay, but seniors must meet a number of specific requirements. This benefit is available to beneficiaries who have been hospitalized for at least three days, excluding the date of discharge, so it’s most valuable for those who are recovering from an injury, illness or surgery.

Once seniors meet the hospitalization requirement, Medicare will pay for up to 100 days of skilled nursing per benefit period. The first 20 days are covered in full. Starting on day 21, beneficiaries must pay a daily coinsurance rate. After day 100, seniors are responsible for the entire cost.

What Does Medicare Cover?

Medicare covers a number of specific services, including:

 

  • Meals
  • A semiprivate room
  • Medications
  • Skilled nursing
  • Physical therapy
  • Occupational therapy
  • Speech therapy
  • Audiologist care
  • Medical supplies
  • Medical social services
  • Nutritional counseling
  • Ambulance transportation

 

What Isn’t Covered by Medicare?

Medicare does not cover long-term custodial care that addresses seniors’ day-to-day needs. This includes help with daily activities, such as bathing, dressing and using medical equipment.

For more information about Medicare and when it covers Nursing Home Care, read our Guide to Nursing Homes.
