Many seniors and their families use some form of financial assistance to help them pay for nursing care. The main options available are Medicare, Medicaid, and veterans benefits. These programs can be complicated, especially when it comes to benefit terms. Below, we give a brief overview of how these programs may be used towards paying for skilled nursing care.
If these options aren’t available to you, check if your loved one has long-term care insurance or contact your Area Agency on Aging to ask about any local financial assistance programs for seniors.
Some seniors transition through different types of care, so it’s worth looking at the costs for each. Able-bodied seniors who attend adult day care centers see costs of around $1,614 in Buffalo Grove. For housebound seniors, costs average at $4,957 for home care, while an additional $96 per month ($5,053) also gets basic medical support. Assisted living is the least costly care that includes accommodation, with fees averaging $4,950. Nursing home care is the most costly, with a typical semiprivate room averaging $8,076, while a private room is about $8,532.

Seniors in Buffalo Grove can access a range of free resources. They can help with advocacy, navigating Medicaid and providing information about making the transition to nursing home care when the time comes.
| Resource | Contact | Service |
|---|---|---|
| Illinois Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program | (888) 401-8200 | Seniors in nursing homes, and their families, can contact the Long-Term Care Ombudsman if they have a complaint about the standard of care in their nursing homes. As part of the Illinois Department of Aging, the ombudsman’s role is to investigate complaints and pursue resolutions with the owners and managers of senior living facilities. Ombudsmen also educate seniors about their rights and ensure all conversations remain confidential. |
| Medicaid | (800) 843-6154 | Adults aged 65 and older who meet the criteria can apply for Medicaid to cover the costs of their nursing home care. To be eligible, seniors must provide evidence that they are U.S. citizens (or legal residents), that they live in Illinois and that nursing home care is the most appropriate for their needs. Eligibility is also determined by financial circumstances. For example, an individual must prove that their annual household income, before taxes, doesn’t exceed $17,775. For a couple, the figure is $24,040. |
| Meals on Wheels of Northeastern Illinois | (847) 332-2678 | Meals on Wheels of Northeastern Illinois is a nonprofit organization that utilizes the support of volunteers to deliver meals to housebound seniors unable to prepare their own. Two freshly prepared meals, one hot, one cold, are delivered around lunchtime Mondays to Saturdays. Meal costs are on a sliding scale based on the senior’s income, with the maximum cost being $8 per meal. The program’s volunteers can also make additional visits to check up on seniors, collect groceries from local stores and provide free food for dogs and cats. |
| Buffalo Grove Senior Services | (847) 459-2506 | Buffalo Grove Senior Services is operated by the village’s government. Although it doesn’t provide direct services, it can refer seniors and their families to various nonprofit organizations working locally. This is particularly useful as Buffalo Grove runs into Cook and Lake counties. Sometimes, support is county-specific, so assistance can be dependent on the senior’s location. Examples of assistance include the senior taxi program, available to eligible adults aged 62+, and Capable Project, which helps seniors live at home for as long as possible. |
