Unfortunately, Pennsylvania is one of several states that do not offer any public financial assistance or waivers to help pay for care in an assisted living facility. Current waivers offer financial assistance for nursing home care or in-home assistance. Even so, seniors who get SSI benefits can still apply for state assistance to pay for a monthly supplement to defray the costs of an assisted living facility.
Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on our Assisted Living in Pennsylvania 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:
