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.
Family members who are unsure if a nursing home is the best solution for their loved ones may want to consider comparing the benefits and costs of alternative forms of care. These tend to be less expensive because they offer lower levels of care for seniors who are capable of maintaining independent or semi-independent lives. The least expensive option is adult day health care, which typically costs in the region of $1,517, followed by assisted living at $3,900 monthly, while home care averages $4,385, with an additional $48 per month for seniors who need help with their medication.
