I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

Review of Embassy of Pickerington

I liked the care, the attention, and the love that the Embassy of Pickerington gave to my dad when he was on hospice services there. The staff was exemplary. The cost was reasonable.

Review of Embassy of Pickerington

My uncle was in this nursing home after he left the hospital. All the staff we encountered were very kind, lots of smiles. We only had a few concerns come up during the stay, but they were nothing...

Financial Assistance for Nursing Home Care in Pickerington, OH

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, Medicare will not cover any part of the cost of the stay. While this is adequate when short-term care is needed, those who need long-term care will have to either pay out-of-pocket or use another source of financial assistance.
  • Medicaid: Medicaid covers most of the cost of living expenses in a skilled nursing facility for qualifying seniors. Care and room and board are covered with no time limit, but residents may be charged for extras such as specially prepared food or cosmetic services. Medicaid eligibility requirements are strict and complex, so not all seniors qualify 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 local financial assistance programs for seniors.

The Cost of Other Types of Senior Care

While nursing home care may provide a suitable environment for seniors requiring ongoing medical services, its cost of $7,490 per month in Pickerington is far higher than fees for alternative types of senior care. Both home care, which is nonmedical, and home health care, which includes light medical services, cost $1,865 less than nursing homes in Pickerington. Assisted living care, provided in a social, homelike environment, costs 45% less than nursing home care. Finally, adult day health care in Pickerington, which offers daytime assistance and monitoring, is priced 77% lower than nursing homes.
