Paying for Assisted Living in Arlington Heights, IL

Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in Arlington Heights

In Illinois, Medicaid doesn’t cover the cost of assisted living; therefore, seniors are required to find alternative funding sources. Seniors living in Arlington Heights who receive Supplemental Security Income may be eligible to receive an optional state supplement, which can help cover assisted living costs. The state also allows family supplementation.

Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on our Assisted Living in Illinois page.

More Ways to Pay for Assisted Living

While many families use their own funds or personal assets to pay for assisted living, there are plenty of additional options to cover these costs. Some additional ways to finance assisted living costs include:

  • Veterans Benefits
  • Life Insurance Policy

  • Reverse Mortgage
