Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in West Allis

There are two routes for financial assistance for assisted living in West Allis: Medicaid's Medical Assistance Personal Care program and Wisconsin's Exceptional Expense Supplement for Members of Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program. The former is available to seniors residing in an ALF with less than 20 residents, and the latter allows additional Social Security income to be granted to eligible seniors to pay for assisted living.

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

  • Reverse Mortgage
