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 contains resources that may help seniors choose a nursing facility and pay for their care. We’ve also included programs that provide in-home support, which could help seniors delay moving into a nursing home.
| Resource | Contact | Service |
|---|---|---|
| Stanislaus County Community Services Agency | (209) 558-2500 | The Stanislaus County Community Services Agency is where Modesto's seniors can apply for MediCal, the state's Medicaid program, which may cover the cost of nursing home care for qualifying seniors. Food and cash assistance as well as adult protective services are also available through the agency. |
| Health Insurance Counseling & Advocacy Program | (209) 558-8698 | Volunteers with HICAP work with seniors one-on-one to help answer their questions about the coverages and eligibility criteria of Medicare's different plans. HICAP's volunteers are knowledgeable about how Medicare works with Medi-Cal and veterans' benefits, and they can also help seniors file appeals for denied claims. |
| Long-Term Care Ombudsman | (209) 558-8698 | The Long-Term Care Ombudsman ensures seniors in nursing homes and other long term care facilities receive a quality of care consistent with the standards set by the state's licensing authorities. If seniors or their families have a complaint, the ombudsman provides free conflict resolution. Helping seniors learn about specific nursing facilities and advising on options to finance care are some of the ombudsman's additional responsibilities. |
| Stanislaus County Department of Aging & Veterans Services | (209) 558-8698 | As the designated Area Agency on Aging, the Stanislaus County Department of Aging & Veterans Services helps seniors access programs that may help them continue to live at home independently. Transportation, legal assistance, health insurance counseling and homemaker programs are just a few of the services the agency manages. |
| In-Home Services | (209) 558-2637 | While working with various providers, the Area Agency on Aging helps seniors receive in-home services that may help them delay transitioning to a nursing facility. In addition to In-home Supportive Services provided through Medi-Cal, seniors may be able to receive respite care through the Family Caregiver Support Program or homemaker services through the Catholic Charities organization. Depending on the program in which they're enrolled, seniors may receive assistance with personal care, housekeeping, meal preparation and laundry among other services. |
