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.
Seniors considering the type of long-term care that is best for their needs should know that nursing home care is the most costly option at $5,735 a month for a semiprivate room and $6,275 for a private room. Adult day health care is the most affordable at $1,733 a month. Assisted living care, which offers less skilled nursing, costs $337 less than nursing home care. Home care and home health care, which adds skilled therapy and nursing services at home, both cost $4,576, which is less than nursing home care.
