Assisted Living Kansas
Known as one of America’s agricultural hubs, Kansas ranks 16th overall on our 2024 Senior Living Report based on factors, such as living costs, access to health care services and senior housing options. Kansas received low marks in the Quality of Life category, but the state ranked 8th in the nation for senior-friendly transportation services and 10th overall for affordability. The median assisted living rate in the state is $4,580 per month, which is only $80 higher than the nationwide median of $4,500.
In Kansas, seniors can enjoy plenty of sunny days and an abundance of wide-open spaces. The state has a population density of 35.6, which is exceptionally low compared to the national average of 93.3. Kansas is home to just under 3 million residents, and 16.3%, or about 475,400, are seniors aged 65 and older.
This guide covers assisted living costs in Kansas and neighboring states, as well as the cost of other long-term care services. It also includes an overview of funding options for covering care costs, a summary of state regulations for assisted living facilities in Kansas and links to free programs for older adults who need help accessing long-term care.
The Cost of Assisted Living in Kansas
When trying to decide how to pay for assisted living, one of the first questions that comes up is "How much does it cost?" With the impact of inflation, it's more important than ever to have up-to-date information when making a financial plan for senior living. To help shed light on real senior living prices, Caring.com has compiled proprietary cost data from its network of over 75,000 senior living providers to offer insight into the average cost of assisted living in Kansas and its 19 cities.
The Cost of Assisted Living in Kansas's Top Cities
The cost of assisted living in Kansas’ top cities varies greatly, emphasizing the need for seniors to do proper research before deciding where to settle. While assisted living in Wichita is the most expensive at $5,427 per month, Kansas City is more affordable, costing a monthly average of $4,543. Costs in Olathe fall between these two at $4,714, and Overland Park is cheapest at $4,333 monthly.

Inflation's Impact on the Cost of Assisted Living in Kansas
The cost of assisted living in Kansas continues to rise due to the impact of inflation. From 2022 to 2023 the average cost went from $4,066 to $4,834 — an increase of 18.9%. At the same time, the U.S. average only increased by 9.6%.
But inflation doesn't impact all states in the same way. In neighboring Oklahoma, costs went up by 19.4%, yet it’s still more affordable than Kansas for assisted living. Colorado saw an increase of 5.4%, while in Nebraska costs rose by 12.6%. The biggest surprise is Missouri, where the average cost decreased by 6% in 2023.
| Location | 2022 Cost (Historical) | 2023 Cost (Current) | 2024 Cost (Estimated) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kansas | $4,066 | $4,834 | $5,149 |
| U.S. Average | $4,070 | $4,459 | $4,802 |
| Colorado | $4,392 | $4,630 | $5,063 |
| Nebraska | $4,480 | $5,043 | $5,304 |
| Missouri | $4,488 | $4,217 | $4,318 |
| Oklahoma | $3,173 | $3,789 | $4,035 |
The Costs of Other Types of Senior Living
The cost of senior living in Kansas depends on the type of care. Independent living is the most affordable option at $2,586 per month, but the amount isn’t necessarily all-inclusive, and living expenses should be factored in before deciding about affordability. Memory care provides the most hands-on care, making it the most expensive option at around $5,587. Assisted living provides care as needed, therefore it's more affordable than memory care at $4,834.

Does Medicaid Cover Assisted Living in Kansas?
In Kansas, Medicaid is known as KanCare. KanCare services are delivered through three contracted managed care organizations, or MCOs: Aetna Better Health of Kansas, Sunflower Health Plan and UnitedHealthcare Community Plan of Kansas. KanCare covers some assisted living services through the Frail Elderly (FE) waiver program, which is available through all KanCare plans.
What Assisted Living Services Are Covered by Medicaid in Kansas?
While KanCare doesn’t pay for the room and board portion of assisted living costs, Kansas’ Medicaid program does cover some services delivered within an assisted living facility through the Frail Elderly waiver program. These services vary based on the needs of each beneficiary as determined through an assessment conducted through the MCO.
Assisted Living Waiver Programs in Kansas
The Frail Elderly (FE) Home and Community-Based Service (HCBS) waiver is a KanCare program that’s designed to delay or prevent institutionalization of at-risk seniors aged 65 and older. The Kansas Department for Aging and Disability Service (KDADS) manages the FE waiver, and benefits include:
- Adult day care
- Assistive technologies, such as communication devices and visual aids
- Help with activities of daily living
- Medication reminders
- Evaluation by a licensed nurse
- Limited diagnostic, prophylactic and restorative dental services, including the purchase and repair of dentures
- Wearable medical alert devices
- Ongoing intermittent skilled nursing care
- Enhanced care services, including transportation to and from medical appointments
To qualify for services through the FE Waiver program, seniors must be aged 65 or older, be financially eligible for KanCare and meet the functional requirements for nursing home placement as outlined by Medicaid.
To enroll in the FE Waiver program, seniors must:
- Request and pass the free functional assessment administered through the nearest Aging and Disability Resource Center (ADRC)

How To Know If You’re Eligible for Medicaid in Kansas
Medicaid’s income limits are adjusted on an annual basis.In 2023, single applicants have no income limit, though all income in excess of $62 per month must go toward the cost of care. Singles also have a $2,000 asset limit. Couples have the same income rules as singles, but married couples where both are applying can have $3,000 in assets. If only one spouse applies, the other has a much higher asset limit of $148,620. This was put in place as a financial protection for the noninstitutionalized spouse.
| Household Size | Number of Applicants | Income Limits Per Year* | Asset Limits: Applicant(s) | Asset Limits: Non-Applicants |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| One Person | 1 | No Income Limit | $2,000 | |

Does Medicare Cover Assisted Living in Kansas?
The short answer is that no, Medicare does not cover the cost of assisted living in Kansas. Assisted living facilities are considered to be a “residential setting” and not a “clinical setting,” (think nursing homes). While Medicare doesn’t cover the cost of care received in an assisted living community, it does still cover things like approved medications, doctor visits, medical equipment, etc., just like it would if you lived at home.
For more information about when Medicare can be used to pay for senior living in a nursing home, and for Medicare-related resources, see our guide to Nursing Homes in Kansas.
Paying for Assisted Living Facilities in Kansas
The Frail Elderly (FE) waiver is the Kansas Home and Community Based Services program available through Medicaid. The intent for the waiver is to delay nursing home placement for those who need a higher level of care but wish to remain living independently or in an assisted living community. Although this waiver does not pay for room and board, it does cover care services recommended by the assisted living facility's plan of care.
To be eligible, applicants must:
- Enrolled in Medicaid
- At least 65 years old
- Demonstrate the need for a nursing facility level of care. This care level requires seniors to need help with at least 2 activities of daily living (personal hygiene, dressing, eating, etc.) and 3 instrumental activities of daily living (housework, shopping, transportation, etc.)
To learn more about eligibility requirements, seniors can contact or visit one of their local Aging and Disability Resource Center or call 1-855-200-2372 if they want more information.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Remember that not all subsidy programs are accepted at every assisted living community. Before choosing a community or a program to apply for, check to make sure the two are compatible.
Other Financial Assistance Options for Assisted Living in Kansas
Seniors who are not eligible (due to location, financial situation, or other factors) for other types of financial assistance, do still have some options. See the table below for an overview of some of the most common ways to make Assisted Living affordable.

Reverse mortgage loans do need to be repaid with interest, typically within 12 months of receiving the loan. |
| Long-Term Care (LTC) Insurance | Learn more about Long-Term Care Insurance and how to apply for a policy at acl.gov. | Seniors who already have long-term care insurance may be able to use it to pay for Assisted Living.
