Eligible seniors in California can receive assistance paying for the cost of services in residential care facilities under the Medicaid 1915(c) Assisted Living Waiver. If they require further assistance with the cost of room and aboard, an optional supplement (OSS) to Supplemental Security Income (SSI) is available and can be applied for as well. Seniors receiving Medicaid may not be charged room and board fees that exceed their combined OSS and SSI less a personal needs allowance of $131 monthly.
