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 home care is just one option for seniors, albeit the most expensive. There are other options for those with different mobility, care needs or budgets. Adult day health care is the most affordable option, costing $1,636 per month on average for care in a group setting during daytime hours. Home care ($5,529) and home health care ($5,815) are aimed at seniors who live independently in their own homes but need some additional support. Assisted living averages $4,950 per month and offers accommodation, meal service and other support.
