Nursing Home Communities in New City, New York

New City is a census-designated place a bit north of New York City. It has an estimated population of 33,559, and 19.2% of those residents are seniors 65 years of age or older, meaning retirees here are surrounded by many peers. New City’s location in Rockland County positions it close to several medical facilities, notably Montefiore Nyack Hospital, Helen Hayes Hospital and Good Samaritan Hospital.

New City’s nursing home residents, on average, pay $13,748 each month for semiprivate rooms, per the Genworth 2020 Cost of Care Survey. That rate significantly exceeds the national average, which is $7,756. Seniors with advanced needs can turn to nursing homes for services such as 24-hour monitoring and medical supervision, as well as care from occupational, speech and physical therapists. Reflecting that level of care, nursing homes tend to be expensive. Older adults whose abilities make home health care or assisted living viable may wish to consider those instead, as they are typically more affordable.

This guide looks at what a typical senior pays for care in New City and concludes with a list of New City–area resources that support older adults.

Financial Assistance for Nursing Home Care in New City, NY

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.

  • Medicare: Medicare will typically cover all skilled nursing costs for the first 20 days of one’s stay in a nursing home and a portion of the costs until day 100. After 100 days in a skilled nursing facility, Medicare will not cover any part of the cost of the stay. While this is adequate when short-term care is needed, those in need of long-term care will need to either pay out-of-pocket or use another source of financial assistance.
  • Medicaid: Medicaid covers most of the costs of living in a skilled nursing facility for those who qualify. Care, room, and board are covered with no time limit, but residents may be charged for extras like specially prepared food or cosmetic services. Medicaid eligibility standards are strict and complex, so not all seniors are eligible for Medicaid benefits.
  • Veterans Benefits: Veterans receiving a VA pension may also be eligible for the Aid and Attendance benefit administered by the VA. Aid and Attendance is a monthly allowance that beneficiaries may use to pay for their long-term care, including 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.

Focusing solely on New City, this part of the guide hones in on the median monthly price of specific senior care arrangements. Home care and home health care carry identical rates of $4,957.

Genworth doesn’t have costs for adult day care for New City, but it’s typically the least expensive care type.
