Paying for Assisted Living in De Forest

Assisted Living costs in De Forest start around $5,028 per month on average, while the nationwide average cost of assisted living is $4,000 per month, according to the latest figures from Genworth’s Cost of Care Survey.

It’s important to note that assisted living rates in De Forest and the surrounding suburbs can vary widely based on factors such as location, the level of care needed, apartment size and the types of amenities offered at each community.

Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in De Forest

While the Medicaid State Plan in Wisconsin does offer some coverage for personal care services, some individuals may need to seek supplementary support. As one of six states that offers non-Medicaid state-funded programs, seniors in Wisconsin have access to a number of resources that may help to reduce the financial burden of costs associated with assisted living. The Dane County Department of Public Services (DCDPS) offers programs specific to adults aged 60 and up, and provides information on agencies where seniors can access financial support.

Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on ourAssisted Living in Wisconsin 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
  • Long-Term Care Insurance
  • Reverse Mortgage

For more information about different ways to finance assisted living, visit our Assisted Living in Wisconsin page.
