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.
Nursing homes are typically the most costly long-term care option for seniors, costing between roughly $8,400 and $9,000. Those who don’t need clinical services may consider assisted living, which, with an average price of $3,617 per month in Valparaiso, is close to $5,000 cheaper than the average semiprivate room in nursing homes. Costing an average of $5,625 per month, home care and home health care enable seniors to keep living at home while receiving help.
