The average cost of nursing homes in Merrillville is $8,456 for semiprivate accommodations. Private rooms typically cost $9,034 per month.
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 local financial assistance programs for seniors.
Additional care options are available to suit seniors with different needs. Assisted living is a residential care option that's over $4,800 less expensive than nursing care, though the services are much less specialized. Alternatively, seniors may wish to age in place at home. In-home care and home health care are suitable options in these circumstances. Both cost less at $5,625 per month; however, home health care includes skilled nursing support in addition to the personal care assistance provided by in-home care.
