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.
Reviewing the costs of other types of senior care in Newton can help you determine the right choice for both budget and health care needs. While adult day care is the least expensive at just $1,603 per month, it doesn’t include around-the-clock supervision. Assisted living and home care or home health care are good options for seniors who don’t require full-time medical assistance and come at an average monthly cost of $4,300, $4,481 and $4,576, respectively. Of course, nursing home care, which is the most expensive at $7,756 per month for semiprivate rooms or $8,821 for private rooms, includes the highest level of care and supervision.
