Paying for Assisted Living in Mankato

 

The typical cost per month for assisted living in Mankato is $3,135, but seniors may find some facilities are cheaper and others more expensive as many factors determine fees, including location and staff-to-resident ratios.

Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in Mankato

Financial assistance is available in Minnesota to help defray some assisted-living costs. This includes the Elderly Waiver program, which is a federal Medicaid waiver program. Minnesota Senior Health Options (MSHO) can also be a source of assistance, but participation levels vary by county. The Community Access for Disability Inclusion (CADI) waiver is another possible source of assistance, but CADI Waiver services are restricted to seniors who enroll before reaching 65 years old.

Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on our Assisted Living in Minnesota 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
  • Long-Term Care Insurance
  • Reverse Mortgage
