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.
The cost of skilled nursing care can make other long-term care options more appealing. Not only is home-based care more affordable, but it can also include some light medical care. Homemaking services average about $4,376 per month and are $4,049 less than a semiprivate room in a nursing home. Home health care costs a bit more but is still $3,668 less than a nursing home. At $3,900 per month, assisted living is $4,525 less than nursing care. A private room costs $639 more per month than a semiprivate room in a nursing home.
