On average, seniors can expect to pay $11,566 per month for a semiprivate room in a nursing home in Burlingame. A private room would cost around $14,068.
Many seniors and their families use some form of financial assistance to help them pay for nursing care. The main options available are Medicare, Medicaid, and veterans benefits. These programs can be complicated, especially when it comes to benefit terms. Below, we give a brief overview of how these programs may be used towards paying for skilled nursing care.
If these options aren’t available to you, check if your loved one has long-term care insurance or contact your Area Agency on Aging to ask about any local financial assistance programs for seniors.
Other types of long-term care may be more suitable for seniors who are unable to live independently, but who do not require skilled nursing care. Adult day health care is the most affordable option, costing just $1,950 per month. Care services delivered in the senior’s own home cost between $6,864 for home care and $7,150 for home health care. Personal care support delivered in an assisted living facility is slightly less expensive than home care, at around $6,319 per month. This is about $5,250 less expensive than a semiprivate room in a nursing home and $7,750 less than the cost of a private room.
