The average price for assisted living in Winona is $3,845 per month according to the Genworth Cost of Care Survey 2020. This is approximately $450 less than the $4,283 per month average for Minnesota, and the $4,300 average for the United States as a whole.
Minnesota seniors in need of financial aid for assisted living costs may be covered through Medical Assistance (MA), the state’s Medicaid option. In addition to this plan, Medicaid offers three waiver programs. Seniors who are not qualified for Medicaid may be able to receive funding through another state program such as the Minnesota Consumer Support Grant (CSG).
Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on our Assisted Living in Minnesota page.
While many families use their own funds or personal assets to pay for assisted living, there are plenty of additional options to cover these costs. Some additional ways to finance assisted living costs include:
