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 more than 75,000 senior living providers to provide insight into the average cost of assisted living in Everett and 60 other cities in Washington.
With three Medicaid programs and two waivers, Washington offers more than twice as many financial assistance options as states such as Utah, Oklahoma and Missouri. Qualified seniors may receive help from the Medicaid Personal Care Program, the Community First Choice Option, Medicaid Alternative Care, the Washington Medicaid COPES Waiver or the New Freedom Medicaid Waiver.
Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on our Assisted Living in Washington page.
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:
