Many assisted living facilities accept multiple payment options, including state and veterans’ benefits and cash payments, to promote long-term financial feasibility. When researching local assisted living communities, seniors should consider the cost of care and strategies that may help them cover services.
Arizona has a variety of resources for senior citizens, some of which may help make the cost of assisted living more affordable. The AHCCCS may also have programs that provide financial help to seniors seeking assisted living.
Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on our Assisted Living in Arizona page.
