Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in Carlisle
There are no Medicaid programs for seniors that help pay for the cost of services provided by assisted living residences in Pennsylvania.
Residents who receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI) may be eligible for additional funding from the state to pay for the cost of room and board. Assisted living residences may not charge seniors who receive SSI more than their monthly income less a personal needs allowance. Family supplementation is permitted provided it's paid directly to the residence.
Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on our Assisted Living in Pennsylvania page.
