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.
Various forms of assistance are available from local organizations that serve Overland Park. Some of these resources can help seniors remain in their own homes longer, delaying the need for nursing facility care, while others help people access health insurance, benefits and general information.
