Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in Talent

Oregon Medicaid has four programs to help eligible seniors cover the costs associated with assisted living. The K Plan, or Community First Choice (CFC) plan, offers long-term supports to avoid nursing home placement and the Independent Choices Program (ICP) provides monthly cash payments to allow self-managed care. The other two programs are Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers, which include the Aged and Physically Disabled (APD) waiver to prevent nursing home placement and the Client-Employed Provider (CEP) program to allow seniors to choose their care providers.

Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on our Assisted Living in Oregon page.

More Ways to Pay for Assisted Living

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:

  • Veterans Benefits
  • Life Insurance Policy

  • Reverse Mortgage

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Talent

  • With mild winters and less rainfall than the national average, the climate in Talent is appealing to seniors who enjoy having access to outdoor activities all year round. Talent gets an average of four inches of snow per year, which is just enough for those who appreciate occasional snowfall but don’t want to live with it for the entire winter. Summers are warm, and there are nearly 40 days each year when summer daytime temperatures rise to about 90 degrees. 
  • Because Talent has a lower crime rate than most U.S. cities, seniors don’t have to worry as much about being the targets of in-person crimes such as mugging or carjacking. 
  • Although the overall cost of living in Talent is slightly higher than the national average, it’s significantly lower than the overall average for Oregon, making it a good choice for seniors seeking a Pacific Northwest lifestyle without the often hefty price tag that comes with it. 
  • Seniors in Talent will have no trouble keeping busy. Those who love live theater will appreciate being in close proximity to Ashland’s renowned Oregon Shakespeare Festival. The area also hosts several smaller festivals and community-based activities such as the Talent Harvest Festival and the Talent Art & Music Festival. 
  • Those who enjoy big city life may have trouble getting used to the slower pace of life in Talent. The closest city, Medford, has a population of approximately 86,000 citizens and may not have all the urban amenities associated with larger metros. 

While the air quality in Talent is reported as good, recent years have shown an increase in wildfire activity in Southern Oregon, and wildfire smoke may contribute to respiratory issues. Seniors should stay inside during these events.
