The 10 Best Nursing Homes in Novi, MI for 2024

Novi, MI, is located on the outer edge of Detroit, where seniors can take advantage of the comfortable suburban atmosphere and convenient proximity to local health care facilities. With 454 physicians per 100,000 residents, compared to the U.S. average of 210, and health care costs up to 17.3‬% lower than the national mean, Novi is an ideal city for seniors who might need rehabilitation and nursing home care.

Nursing home expenses average $9,733 per month in Novi. For this price, seniors typically receive 24-hour skilled nursing and access to an interdisciplinary team to handle all aspects of their care, such as medical treatments, rehabilitative therapies and nutritional management. However, as nursing care is rather expensive compared to in-home care and assisted living, individuals may want to utilize one of these services first if they don’t need round-the-clock vitals monitoring or access to nurse-administered medical procedures such as pain management.

This guide provides an overview of nursing home costs in Novi, MI, and alternative locations nearby. It also includes free resources seniors can use to learn about their care or continue living at home for longer.

Financial Assistance for Nursing Home Care in Novi, MI

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.

  • Medicare: Medicare will typically cover all skilled nursing costs for the first 20 days of one’s stay in a nursing home and a portion of the costs until day 100. After 100 days in a skilled nursing facility, Medicare will not cover any part of the cost of the stay. While this is adequate when short-term care is needed, those in need of long-term care will need to either pay out-of-pocket or use another source of financial assistance.
  • Medicaid: Medicaid covers most of the costs of living in a skilled nursing facility for those who qualify. Care, room, and board are covered with no time limit, but residents may be charged for extras like specially prepared food or cosmetic services. Medicaid eligibility standards are strict and complex, so not all seniors are eligible for Medicaid benefits.
  • Veterans Benefits: Veterans receiving a VA pension may also be eligible for the Aid and Attendance benefit administered by the VA. Aid and Attendance is a monthly allowance that beneficiaries may use to pay for their long-term care, including 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.
