I’m using HomeCare.com. It’s fine. They’re very good and very responsive to any concerns I have, and they’ve provided me with a good health care aide, not great necessarily, but good. They also provide light housekeeping, they help me clean myself up, and they take me to my appointment. They get here within a certain time window between 7 and 7:30, and that’s when I need them here. A lot of times my communication is directly with the aides. If she can’t come on a certain day, the agency would contact me to see whether I need some assistance or need somebody to fill me in on a given day. I think I’m paying more than I probably should because they have a mandatory number of days that I can contract for, and that’s probably more than I usually need. To maintain the contract, I have to keep them on a certain number of days.

Paying for Home Care in Broadview Heights, OH
The Cost of Home Care in Broadview Heights, OH
According to the 2020 Genworth Cost of Care Survey, seniors in Broadview Heights have more favorable home care costs than most of their peers in Ohio and the United States, who typically pay $4,481 per month. However, when compared to the closest cities included in the survey, savings aren’t as high. In nearby Cleveland, for example, average fees are $4,362, dropping to $4,338 in Canton. In Youngstown, typical fees are actually lower than in Broadview Heights, at $4,004.
The Cost of Home Care vs. Other Senior Care Options in Broadview Heights, OH
It’s common to find home care and home health care agencies charging similar fees in Broadview Heights — typically $4,195 — despite the latter providing limited medical care with standard home care services. Adult day care centers are the most affordable option for seniors able to attend, at $1,387, and assisted living is the most affordable option with accommodation and care, at $4,875. Nursing homes provide the most intensive care, which is reflected in the average fee of $8,121 for a semiprivate room.

Note: Data for Broadview Heights was unavailable, so data for the nearest city, Akron, was used instead.
Financial Assistance for Home Care in Broadview Heights, OH
Given the high cost of in-home care, many people use one or more forms of financial assistance to cover the expenses. Below, we explain some of the most common sources of financial help for paying for in-home care. If none of these options are available to you, you can reach out to your Area Agency on Aging or Aging and Disability Resource Center to learn about local resources.
Long-Term Care Insurance: Long-Term Care Insurance covers expenses related to senior care, including in-home care. Depending on the policy type, beneficiaries may receive a cash payment to use towards long-term care or reimbursement for qualifying long-term care expenses. Note that there are limitations- typically a maximum benefit of $150 per day- and exact coverage terms vary depending on the exact policy, so always check the details.
Medicare: Medicare does not cover in-home care because it is classified as custodial, or non-medical, care. However, some Medicare Advantage and Medicare Supplement plans, which offer expanded benefits, may cover in-home custodial care.
Medicaid: Medicaid coverage of in-home care varies between different states because it is not a federally mandated benefit. Currently, all states cover some in-home care either through their standard Medicaid or a waiver program. The specific coverage rules are set individually by each state.
Veterans’ Benefits: The Aid and Attendance benefit is a monthly cash payment that beneficiaries can use to pay for senior care, including in-home care services. To qualify for A&A, Veterans must already receive the VA pension and meet several additional requirements, including needing assistance with the activities of daily living.Contact the Department of Veterans Affairs to learn more.
Reverse Mortgages: Home Equity Conversion Mortgages (HECMs) are federally insured loans that are available to homeowners age 62 and over. Reverse mortgages allow you to access a portion of your home’s equity in cash, tax free. Many seniors use reverse mortgages to finance their care expenses, including in-home care. Note that although there are no monthly payments due on reverse mortgage loans, borrowers do have to repay the loan once the last surviving homeowner passes away, moves, or sells the home.
Free & Low-Cost Home Care Resources in Broadview Heights, OH
Seniors in Broadview Heights have access to many free and low-cost resources designed to support them in their later years. These examples of what’s available show how seniors can get help meeting utility costs, reducing energy consumption, sourcing fresh meals and minimizing their tax burden.
This program, managed by the City of Broadview Heights, provides nutritionally balanced and freshly prepared hot and chilled meals for seniors unable to make their own and residents recuperating from surgery and serious illness. Two meals are delivered every day on weekdays between 10 a.m. and 12 p.m., one for that day's lunch and the other to be refrigerated for the evening's meal. The first two weeks cost $60 per person, reduced to $30 for each subsequent week. The volunteer drivers also make wellness checks on seniors during deliveries.
The State of Ohio's weatherization assistance program helps residents on low incomes reduce their energy costs while also making their homes more comfortable living spaces. To get support, the applicant must be a state resident, own or rent the home and have an income and assets that fall within guidelines. For successful applicants, the program can cover the cost of work recommended in the energy audit. These may include installing attic and wall insulation, repairing or replacing damaged windows and doors and fixing broken furnaces and boilers.
Cuyahoga County residents aged 65 and older and veterans with 100% disability related to their military service may be entitled to tax savings on their homes. To qualify, they must own and occupy the home in Cuyahoga County — it must be the primary residence — and have incomes that fall within the program's guidelines.
The federally funded Home Energy Assistance Program is managed by the Ohio Development Services Agency. Ohioans whose energy suppliers are threatening to disconnect their services due to unpaid bills can apply to the program, which can make a one-off payment directly to the supplier to cover the charge. The amount the program can provide is dependent on the number of persons in the household and their location. Seniors who have longer-term payment issues may want to inquire into a Percentage of Income Payment Plan, which can standardize payments over an extended period, making energy costs easier to budget.
Determining Your Loved One’s Need for In-Home Care
Aging can be a difficult process, and loved ones may not always ask for help – oftentimes it’s up to their family to evaluate their need for help around the house. While no two situations are exactly alike, this checklist can help you and your loved ones determine when it’s time to start the search for a home care provider.
Guidelines for Talking About In-Home Care
If you’ve determined that your loved one needs the assistance of a care provider in their home, it may be time for a difficult conversation. Handled correctly, however, this process can bring a family together and ensure that everyone’s concerns are addressed. Use this PDF as a starting point to help the conversation stay as positive and productive as possible.
Frequently Asked Questions
How can I find home care agencies near me with availability?
Caring.com provides a comprehensive list of home care agencies in every part of the country that’s free to use. The list for Broadview Heights includes every provider who operates in the city, in addition to giving each a star rating out of five based on unfiltered reviews left by clients who have used the service. Users can also retrieve detailed information about each agency, such as their range of services, hourly rates and payment options.
How do you pay for senior care at home?
Possibly the most common way to pay for home care is for the senior to use their savings and income from their assets. Collective sibling agreements are also widespread, where the senior’s offspring each pay for a portion of the care costs, adding up to the whole. Reverse mortgages, where the seniors draw on a portion of their home’s equity to meet home care bills, are a popular option too. Low-income seniors in receipt of Medicaid can also apply for the PASSPORT waiver, and those with Medicare may find their plans can meet some costs in the short term.
What is the difference between in-home care and home health care?
In-home care is a nonmedical service, where a trained caregiver takes on tasks the senior is no longer able to do, such as grocery shopping, preparing meals and housekeeping. The caregiver’s role may also include bathing the senior and assisting with personal grooming, including infrequent tasks, such as toenail clipping. Home health care can include all the services previously mentioned but with the addition of basic medical care. For example, a registered nurse may visit to administer intravenous injections or a specialist to deliver occupational therapies.
Who is eligible for the veterans home care program?
The veterans home care program is provided to U.S. military veterans with complex medical needs that can be handled within their own homes. Criteria for eligibility are varied and often confusing. For example, a vet with 90 consecutive days of active duty with at least one day in a war zone may be eligible, but they must also qualify for the VA pension and satisfy the medical and financial requirements for support. Because determining eligibility can be complex, some seniors may want to consider using free support services, such as VeteranAid.org, which specialize in helping vets identify and apply for applicable benefits.
Can you write off in-home elderly care?
It is possible to write off some in-home elderly care expenses. The first step should be to read IRS Publication 502 and itemize all medical expenses that can be claimed on Schedule A. Depending on each senior’s unique circumstances, this may mean the IRS can deduct from some personal and maintenance expenses, including in-home care costs. Additionally, the senior may be eligible for deductibles related to home modifications, such as access ramps, and other savings if the caregiver is deemed a household employee as per IRS Publication 926.
