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.
Nursing home care is almost always more expensive than other types of care. Seniors who don’t require 24-hour monitoring may prefer to opt for in-home care or home health care at $3,337 monthly, as home health care includes some medical treatments similar to nursing homes. Assisted living facilities are also highly affordable at just $2,650 per month, but aren’t typically equipped to handle complex medical conditions, making them best for stable individuals who only require personal care.
