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 can also consider alternatives to nursing home care, such as home health care or adult day health care, if nursing home costs don’t fit within their budget. In Riverdale, assisted living services average $5,991 a month; home care and home health care services are each $4,957 a month. Adult day health care is by far the least expensive option at $1,950 per month, undercutting the price of a private room in a nursing home by nearly $11,000 per month.
