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 following resources may assist seniors who are looking for options to help them safely age in place. One resource looks at financial aid options for those who have decided that it is time to move to nursing home care.
| Resource | Contact | Service |
|---|---|---|
| Meals on Wheels | (361) 826-3150 | The Corpus Christi Meals on Wheels program delivers meals to homebound seniors aged 60 and over who are no longer able to prepare meals for themselves. Meals are charged on a sliding scale depending on the income of the senior and for a number of seniors, there is no charge for the meals. Volunteers deliver the meals around noon each day from Monday to Friday and each meal contains about a third of the daily calorie requirements for seniors. The volunteers provide a social check service and contact the relevant authorities or family members if something seems amiss. |
| Senior Companion Program | (361) 826 – 3154 | The Senior Companion Program assists seniors who want to stay independent in their own homes by matching them with volunteer companions who will assist them with basic tasks. The volunteers are all over the age of 55 and provide much needed social interactions for homebound seniors. Services offered include assisting with the tasks of daily living, grocery shopping, playing games, social activities and taking clients to medical appointments. |
| MIPPA | (361) 883-3935 | The MIPPA program assists seniors and their family members by providing free and unbiased information about Medicare. The counselors can help seniors to understand the Medicare benefits they are eligible for and how these benefits can reduce their monthly medical costs. They can help the seniors to apply for benefits and give them a list of nursing homes that allow Medicare payments. |
