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.

The list below outlines a few programs and resources that may help seniors pay for nursing home care or help them continue living independently in the community and delay the move to a nursing facility.
| Resource | Contact | Service |
|---|---|---|
| Long-term Care Ombudsman | (651) 431-2555 | The Long-Term Care Ombudsman program ensures seniors have a fair voice in disputes with their nursing facility caregivers. Common scenarios warranting an ombudsman’s involvement include concerns about care quality, financial disputes, disruption in long-term care insurance benefits and any situation where the rights of a resident are in jeopardy. |
| Trellis | (651) 641-8612 | Trellis is the Area Agency on Aging for the Twin Cities area. The agency offers Medicare counseling and admissions screening for the state Medicaid Program, Medical Assistance. It also helps seniors access in-home supportive services, and provides Medicare and health insurance options counseling. Many of Trellis’s services are funded by the Older Americans Act. |
| Department of Human Services | (612) 596-1036 | The Department of Human Services is the government department where seniors can sign up for Hennepin Health, the county’s implementation of the state’s Medicaid program. Workers can assist seniors with enrollment, explain the costs and benefits of government subsidy programs and advise on available waiver programs and services seniors may qualify for. |
| Meals on Wheels | (612) 623-3363 | Meals on Wheels is a national nutrition program that aids seniors who are homebound and unable to shop for groceries or cook for themselves. Meals on Wheels delivers freshly prepared meals straight to seniors’ doorsteps Monday through Friday, and frozen meals may be provided for weekends. The cost is nominal and based on a senior’s needs, or covered for those enrolled in Medicaid’s home and community-based services program. |
