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.
