Seniors draw from public financial assistance and their own income and assets to pay for assisted living services. Relying on a mix of financial strategies promotes access to high-quality care, even as service needs evolve.
Seniors who qualify for long-term care can receive financial help for assisted living through the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS). The Arizona Long-Term Care System (ALTCS) assigns a case manager to help coordinate plans. Financial assistance may be offered through a health plan similar to an HMO or through a Medicaid demonstration waiver. Residents may be required to pay the room and board expenses out of pocket.
Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on our Assisted Living in Arizona page.
