To cover assisted living expenses, seniors draw from several funding sources. This may include health insurance programs such as Medicaid and Medicare, depending on an individual’s eligibility and the types of long-term care services they need. Additionally, most seniors pay for assisted living with their own income and assets.
California's Medicaid system, or Medi-Cal, offers four programs to help seniors pay for assisted living. The Assisted Living Waiver Program (ALWP) is currently available in 15 California counties, including Santa Clara County. The program helps seniors who are eligible for nursing home care to live in an assisted living facility. The program does not cover room and board, but services such as personal care assistance, medication administration and prepared meals are covered.
Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on our Assisted Living in California page.
