Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in Kennett Square

Currently, Pennsylvania does not cover assisted living services under Medicaid or any Medicaid waiver programs. However, the state does add money to the cash benefit provided to low-income seniors through the federal Supplemental Security Income program, which can be used toward assisted living. 

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