Based on data from 2020’s Genworth Cost of Care Survey, skilled nursing facilities in New Haven cost $12,395 on average per month, which is $532 below the state’s average. Nursing home rates in the area are significantly above the national median of $7,756.
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.
