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.
As nursing homes provide the highest levels of supervision outside a hospital, they are also the costliest senior care option available. Older adults who don’t need intensive care might benefit from researching other options. Adult day care is the least expensive choice; Akron seniors pay a monthly median cost of $1,387. Home care and home health care providers each cost $4,195 on average per month. Older adults who’d prefer residential care might benefit from moving into an assisted living facility, which in Akron costs an average of $4,875 each month.
